Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a bold relief grouping of three heroic busts in profile facing left, representing a United States Navy sailor, a soldier in helmet, and an aviator wearing flight goggles, set against a dramatic background of billowing smoke and explosions evoking the attack on Pearl Harbor. The composition is rendered in a monumental, sculptural style suggestive of a war memorial. The arc legend 'TO THE HEROES OF PEARL HARBOR' runs along the upper periphery. Below the figural group, the denomination 'TEN DOLLARS' appears on a straight line, with the commemorative dual dates '1941 * 1991' inscribed below, marking the fiftieth anniversary of the attack. A small 'R' mintmark for the Roger Williams Mint is visible to the lower right of the design.

Aanvullende informatie

The Marshall Islands began issuing commemorative coinage in the late 1980s under a licensing arrangement, producing collector pieces with no genuine circulation role. This Pearl Harbor issue appeared on the 50th anniversary of the attack, part of a broader World War II commemorative series the issuer released throughout the early 1990s.

Nordic Gold — an alloy of copper, aluminum, zinc, and tin developed in the late 1980s — was adopted here before it became widely known as the material for euro-zone lower denominations.
