| Reverse description | Adapted reverse design derived from the 1915 British Sovereign, featuring the celebrated Saint George and the Dragon composition originally engraved by Benedetto Pistrucci. Saint George is shown mounted on horseback, facing right, clad in a helmet and flowing cape, his right hand wielding a sword as he slays the dragon prostrate beneath the horse's hooves. The date of the original sovereign appears in the exergue. |

| Additional information |
Liberia has no meaningful gold coinage tradition of its own, so this piece belongs to the well-documented category of legal-tender issues produced entirely for the collector market by outside minting contractors — coins that will never circulate in Monrovia or anywhere else. The denomination of 30 Liberian dollars bears no relationship to the coin's actual bullion value or to any circulating monetary framework.
At 0.155 g of fine gold, this is among the smallest gold coin formats currently in commercial production — roughly one-thousandth of a troy ounce.
