| Obverse description | The arms of the Republic of Liberia occupy the central field, depicting a sailing vessel on open water beside a palm tree, with a rising sun and a dove in flight above; a cannon and the motto scroll reading 'THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE' appear within the shield. The date '2005' is divided to either side of the coat of arms, with '20' at left and '05' at right. A secondary scroll at the base of the arms bears the legend 'REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA', repeated as the primary circumferential legend around the upper portion of the coin. The design is framed by a beaded inner border. |

| Additional information |
Liberia's early-2000s commemorative output was prodigious and commercially driven — the country was in the middle of a prolonged civil conflict and generating hard currency through licensed coin programs administered largely from outside the country. This piece belongs to a wave of FIFA World Cup Germany 2006 issues that flooded the market in the years before the tournament, most produced by European minting houses on Liberian authority with no meaningful connection to the issuing state.
The "small issue" designation distinguishes it from a parallel higher-mintage release in the same series, though neither figure was independently audited.
