| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of the Republic of the Marshall Islands occupies the central field, depicting a frigatebird with outstretched wings above a traditional outrigger canoe and palm trees, with two crossed traditional navigational stick charts at the base and a radiant sun above. Flanking the central device are a conch shell to the upper left and a traditional fish trap to the upper right. The entire design is encircled by a chain border. The legend REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS arcs along the upper periphery, while the Marshallese national motto JEPILPILIN KE EJUKAAN curves along the lower periphery; the denomination $10 appears to the left and the year 1993 to the right, with the word SEAL inscribed on a tablet at the base of the arms. |

| Reverse description | Three detailed renderings of the Wright Brothers' Flyer biplane are depicted in the field, shown at varying distances to convey a sense of flight: a large, prominently rendered aircraft occupies the foreground to the right, a second aircraft appears in the middle ground to the left, and a third is shown in the background near the upper center, all with their characteristic open framework construction faithfully reproduced. The denomination 10 DOLLARS is inscribed to the lower right. The commemorative legend FLIGHT AT KITTY HAWK arcs along the upper periphery, and the dual dates 1903 • 1993, marking the 90th anniversary of the Wright Brothers' first powered flight, are inscribed along the lower border. |
