| 背面描述 | The reverse presents a dramatic low-angle view of an Avro Lancaster heavy bomber in flight, rendered in finely detailed high relief against a mirror-polished field evoking a night sky. The aircraft is depicted banking slightly, with its four Merlin engines and distinctive twin tail assembly clearly delineated, while an explosion and rising flames are visible to the upper left, suggesting a successful dam-busting raid. The Upkeep bouncing bomb is visible beneath the fuselage. The legend LANCASTER arcs along the upper border, and the denomination 50 FIFTY DOLLARS is inscribed in the lower field. The Sunshine Mint mintmark S appears at the lower right. |

The Avro Lancaster flew 156,000 sorties over Europe between 1942 and 1945, suffering catastrophic losses — Bomber Command's overall aircrew death rate exceeded 44%, the highest of any Allied service branch. The Marshall Islands had no historical connection to the European air war whatsoever; this coin is one of dozens of WWII commemoratives the republic issued throughout the early 1990s under a licensing arrangement that effectively turned the nation's mint authority into a revenue stream for foreign distributors targeting the collector market.
The KM#104 assignment places it within a densely packed commemorative sequence from that period.
