| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features the national seal of the Republic of the Marshall Islands rendered in fine relief at the center of the field. The seal depicts a frigate bird with outstretched wings above a traditional Marshallese outrigger canoe, a fishing net, coconut palm trees, and a radiant sun, all enclosed within a decorative shield. A chain-link border frames the entire design. The denomination '$5' appears to the left and the date '1998' to the right, flanking the seal. The upper legend reads 'REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS' and the lower legend bears the national motto 'JEPILPILIN KE EJUKAAN', with the word 'SEAL' inscribed on a banner within the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
USS Juneau (CL-52) was sunk by a single Japanese torpedo on November 13, 1942, during the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal. The explosion detonated the forward ammunition magazine, and the ship went down in twenty seconds. Of roughly 700 men aboard, only ten survived — in part because nearby vessels, fearing further submarine attack, did not stop to retrieve survivors. The five Sullivan brothers all died in the sinking, a loss that directly prompted the Sole Survivor Policy.
