| Beschrijving keerzijde | The ornate Auld Mug, the America's Cup trophy, stands prominently in the central field, its elaborate ewer-form body and scrolled handle rendered in fine detail, with a heraldic shield visible at the top. Behind the trophy, two racing yachts under full sail converge dramatically, their sails overlapping across the field, with stylised waves at the base and seabirds in flight to either side. The date 1987 appears to the left of the trophy in the field. The encircling legend THE AMERICA'S CUP CHALLENGE · FREMANTLE runs along the upper periphery, while FINE SILVER 5 OUNCES and CROWNS are inscribed in the lower exergual area, flanked by decorative chain motifs. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The 1987 America's Cup saw the first successful defense by a non-American syndicate — Australia II had taken the Cup from the New York Yacht Club in 1983, ending a 132-year American winning streak. The 1987 challenger series in Fremantle drew entries from twelve syndicates across seven nations, ultimately producing a Dennis Conner-led Stars and Stripes campaign that reclaimed the trophy for the United States.
Pobjoy produced several denominations tied to this event; at 155.55 grams, this five-ounce piece sits at the heavier end of their commemorative output for the series.
