| Beschrijving keerzijde | A highly detailed three-quarter bow view of the Iowa-class battleship USS Missouri (BB-63) is rendered in the centre of the field, depicting the vessel underway with her superstructure, gun turrets, and forward deck rendered in fine engraved detail. Waves are shown breaking at the bow, conveying a sense of motion. The legend USS MISSOURI arcs along the upper periphery in large raised letters, while the denomination 10 / DOLLARS appears in two lines to the left of the vessel. The engraver's initials BS appear at lower left in the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The USS Missouri (BB-63) is best remembered as the site of Japan's formal surrender on September 2, 1945, making her arguably the most historically loaded battleship in American naval history. The Marshall Islands issued commemorative brass dollars throughout the 1990s in prolific numbers, licensing American military subjects with little restraint — KM#453 is one of dozens in that run, produced for the collector market rather than any domestic monetary purpose.
Missouri was decommissioned for the last time in 1992 and is now a museum ship at Pearl Harbor, moored less than a mile from the wreck of the Arizona.
