The banknote's obverse features a portrait of the Lithuanian poet Maironis, with the denomination "20" prominently displayed. The reverse depicts the Kaunas War Museum and its surrounding area. This note, cataloged as Pick 57, was printed by the United States Banknote Corporation. The note measures 135 x 65 mm and includes signatures from Eduardas Vilkelis and Romualdas Visokavičius.
