| Obverse description | A stylized rendition of the American presidential seal occupies the central field, depicting a spread-winged bald eagle displayed, its breast bearing a shield of vertical and horizontal stripes. The eagle holds an olive branch in its dexter talon and a bundle of arrows in its sinister talon, with a banner inscribed LIBERTY arching above its head and a glory of radiating rays and stars above. The peripheral legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA arcs along the upper rim, while the denomination FIVE DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower rim, with a ring of small stars encircling the central device. |

| Additional information |
Liberia's commemorative coinage of the late 1990s and early 2000s was largely produced for the international collector market rather than domestic circulation, with many issues contracted to foreign mints and bearing little connection to Liberian monetary history. This piece, keyed to the first presidential oath, was part of a broad American-themed series Liberia issued around the millennium — a commercial product aimed squarely at U.S. collectors.
The X# prefix in the Krause reference confirms its status as a non-circulating collector issue outside the main catalog sequence.
