| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a detailed high-relief rendering of H.M.S. Bounty, the Royal Navy vessel famous for the 1789 mutiny, depicted as a full-rigged three-masted sailing ship underway on stylized open seas with billowing furled sails and intricate rigging. Several clouds are scattered throughout the field to port and starboard of the vessel. The denomination $10 is inscribed in the upper left of the field, and the name BOUNTY appears in bold letters to the upper right. The composition fills the entire field, conveying the ship's imposing profile in fine numismatic engraving. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bounty mutiny of April 1789 has generated more commemorative coinage than almost any other single naval incident, largely because it combines genuine historical drama with a cast of characters — Fletcher Christian, William Bligh — that mythology has never left alone. Liberia has issued commemoratives aggressively since the 1990s, contracting production through foreign mints to generate collector revenue rather than circulating currency. This piece belongs to that program entirely.
KM# 315 was struck by the Pobjoy Mint in Surrey, which handled a substantial portion of Liberia's commemorative output during this period.
