| Obverse description | The obverse displays the national seal of the Republic of the Marshall Islands set within a decorative chain border. The central device features a stylized frigate bird with outstretched wings above a traditional Marshallese navigational stick chart, flanked by a rising sun with radiating rays at upper left and a crescent moon at upper right. At lower left, a cluster of palm trees is visible, and at lower right, a traditional outrigger sailing canoe. The word SEAL appears on a tablet below the central device. The legend REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS arcs along the upper periphery, with the denomination $50 at left and the date 1996 at right; the Marshallese national motto JEPILPILIN KE EJUKAAN curves along the lower periphery. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely modeled bust of American actor James Dean in three-quarter right-facing portrait, rendered in high relief with meticulous detail to his characteristic swept-back hair and casual open-collar jacket. The legend JAMES DEAN is inscribed in bold letters along the upper arc of the field. The date 1996 appears at the lower left of the field, and the denomination FIFTY DOLLARS is inscribed in two lines at the lower right. A small engraver's initial mark is visible at the lower right near the rim. The portrait is set against a deeply mirrored proof field, lending the design an elegant, sculptural quality. |
