| Reversbeschreibung | The central device depicts the ornate Auld Mug, the iconic America's Cup trophy, rendered in high relief and positioned prominently in the foreground before a dynamic scene of two racing yachts under full sail on choppy seas. Seagulls are visible in the background field, adding depth and a nautical atmosphere to the composition. The Isle of Man triskelion shield appears at the top of the field, above the trophy handle. The encircling legend THE AMERICA'S CUP CHALLENGE · FREMANTLE arcs along the upper periphery, while the date 1987 appears to the left of the trophy. Along the lower border, the inscriptions FINE SILVER 10 OUNCES and CROWNS, flanked by decorative chain motifs, indicate the denomination and metal content. |

Issued to mark the 1987 America's Cup, the year an Australian syndicate — Bond's Australia II — had already shocked the sailing world by ending the New York Yacht Club's 132-year winning streak in 1983. By 1987, the Cup had moved to Fremantle, and the United States was attempting to reclaim it through the Stars & Stripes syndicate skippered by Dennis Conner, who had lost the cup four years earlier. Conner won it back in a dominant fashion, four races to none.
The Isle of Man issued numerous large-format silver pieces throughout the 1980s under the direction of the Pobjoy Mint, capitalizing on commemorative demand with ten-ounce strikes like this one.
