| Obverse description | The central field displays the coat of arms of the Republic of Liberia, featuring a shield with a sailing ship at sea, a palm tree, and a rising sun, surmounted by a dove in flight and flanked by a plow and a shovel. A scroll beneath the shield bears the legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA, while a banner across the upper portion of the shield reads THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE. The date 2011 is divided by the arms in the lower field, and the denomination 5 DOLLARS appears along the lower rim. The outer legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA arcs along the upper periphery. |

| Reverse description | The central field features a full-color photographic-style depiction of the Hungarian MÁV class 220 steam locomotive, shown in three-quarter view on the tracks, emitting a billowing cloud of dark smoke from its chimney stack. The locomotive is rendered in naturalistic color against a mirror-polished silver field, with steam escaping from beneath the wheels. The upper arc bears the legend HISTORY OF RAILROADS in bold raised letters against a darkened background. The locomotive designation MÁV-220 appears along the lower arc, flanked on both sides by a series of five-pointed stars. |
