Obverse description The national arms of the Republic of the Marshall Islands occupies the central field, depicting a traditional Marshallese figure with outstretched wings flanked by a canoe under sail and a palm-lined coastline, with a radiant sun above. The design is enclosed within a decorative rope-and-chain border. The legend REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS arcs across the upper field, with the denomination $10 at the left and the date 1995 at the right. The Marshallese national motto JEPILPILIN KE EJUKAAN appears along the lower field, and the word SEAL is inscribed on a tablet at the base of the arms.

Additional information

The Marshall Islands has no domestic mint and contracts all coin production to foreign facilities, primarily in the United States and Germany. This commemorative was issued by the Republic's government as legal tender, though the islands' actual circulating currency is the US dollar — none of these pieces ever entered commercial circulation in any functional sense.

The 50th anniversary series from this issuer spans dozens of individual titles covering the Pacific, Atlantic, and European theaters, produced in bulk for the collector market rather than for monetary use.
