| Reverse description | A Roman gladiator is depicted in dynamic combat pose at the centre of the field, his body turned in three-quarter view as he raises a broad sword overhead with his right hand while holding a large round shield in his left. He is clad in segmented armour, a tunic, and greaves, with an open-mouthed expression conveying battle fury. The figure is rendered in a bold illustrative engraving style against a mirror-polished field framed by two concentric raised rings. No legends or inscriptions appear on this face. |

| Additional information |
Liberia has issued commemorative and novelty coinage under licensing arrangements since the 1990s, with most pieces produced by private minting houses in Europe bearing face values that bear no relationship to actual monetary policy. A 0.155g platinum piece — roughly one-tenth the weight of a standard 1/20 oz bullion coin — falls squarely into the micro-bullion novelty category, where the platinum content is nominal and the "Gladiator" licensing fee likely exceeds the metal value.
