| Reverse description | The reverse depicts two soccer players in dynamic action, one executing a sliding tackle against the other as both contest a football shown airborne in the upper field, rendered in high-relief proof finish. The legend 'WORLD CUP SOCCER' curves along the upper periphery. The denomination '20 DOLLARS' appears to the lower right of the central design, and the date '1994' is inscribed along the lower periphery. The composition captures the athleticism and movement of the sport in a bold, sculptural style. |

| Additional information |
The Marshall Islands issued commemorative coinage aggressively throughout the 1990s, targeting the collector market almost exclusively — these pieces saw no meaningful circulation on the islands themselves. The 1994 World Cup series was timed to the tournament hosted jointly by the United States across nine cities, the first time the competition came to American soil and still the highest-attended World Cup on record.
