| Obverse description | The national seal of the Republic of the Marshall Islands occupies the central field, featuring a stylised frigate bird with outstretched wings above a traditional Marshallese outrigger canoe sailing to the right, with a lighthouse and island vegetation to the left. Above the seal, a radiant sun and a crescent moon flank two crossed traditional throwing sticks. The denomination '5' appears to the left and the date '1997' to the right within the border. The circular legend 'REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS' arcs along the upper rim, while the national motto 'JEPILPILIN KE EJUKAAN' arcs along the lower rim, all within a decorative chain border. |

| Reverse description | A lone soldier clad in a full-length poncho and helmet stands in three-quarter view facing left, rifle slung at his side, evoking the imagery of the Korean War Veterans Memorial. The figure is rendered in high relief against a lightly textured background suggesting a wintry landscape. The curved legend 'TO THE HEROES OF THE KOREAN WAR' arcs along the upper rim, punctuated by small star devices at intervals. The denomination 'FIVE DOLLARS' is inscribed in a straight line along the lower rim. |
