| 背面描述 | The convex reverse features a highly detailed, three-dimensional rendering of a basketball passing through the hoop and net, the pebbled surface texture of the ball rendered with exceptional sculptural precision and exploiting the domed format to create a pronounced trompe-l'oeil effect. The rim of the basket and the flowing net hang below the ball, occupying the lower portion of the field. The circular legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA · E PLURIBUS UNUM · FIVE DOLLARS runs along the upper periphery in raised Latin characters. The engravers' initials DW and PH appear at the lower field near the net. |

Authorized under the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Commemorative Coin Act, this issue was part of a three-coin program that also produced clad half dollars and silver dollars. The Hall of Fame, located in Springfield, Massachusetts — the city where James Naismith invented the game in 1891 — had lobbied for a commemorative program for years before Congress finally approved it. Surcharges from sales went directly to the Hall's endowment.
The curved planchet format, shared with the silver dollar in this program, requires a specialized die and striking process that the Philadelphia and West Point facilities had refined since the 2014 Baseball Hall of Fame coins introduced the concave shape to American coinage.
