| Obverse description | The arms of the Republic of Sierra Leone occupy the central field, depicting a shield supported by two lions rampant, with palm trees rising above and a ribbon bearing the national motto in the exergue. The legend REPUBLIC OF SIERRA LEONE curves along the upper periphery, with the date 2020 along the right. The Pobjoy Mint mark PM appears below the shield, and the denomination $4 is inscribed at the bottom of the field. A beaded border frames the entire design. |

| Additional information |
Sierra Leone's "Big Cats" micro-gold series targets the bullion novelty market rather than circulation, produced in tiny fractional weights for collectors seeking low entry-point gold. The panther issue is a curiosity in that panthers are not native to Sierra Leone — the animal carries no particular national or ecological significance there, making it a purely commercial choice by the issuing authority.
