| Descripción del reverso |
A raised topographical relief map of Liberia dominates the central field, with the country name LIBERIA inscribed boldly across the map in large letters. The circular peripheral legend, running continuously around the border, reads L$400, PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATION, 1976, LIBERIA, SELF RELIANCE, and NOW - ALWAYS, each phrase separated by five-pointed stars. The design conveys a strong sense of national identity and self-determination. |

Liberia's 1976 pattern issues were produced in anticipation of William Tolbert's presidency, though Tolbert had actually assumed office in 1971 following the death of William Tubman. The 1976 date likely ties to the American Bicentennial, which Liberia — given its founding connections to the American Colonization Society — marked with unusual enthusiasm. Pattern pieces from this series were struck in multiple metals for approval purposes and never entered circulation.
