Reverse description A stylised panoramic skyline of New York City dominates the upper field, featuring prominent renderings of the Empire State Building, the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, and other Manhattan skyscrapers rendered in clean architectural relief. In the lower centre, a large soccer ball bears the curved legend WORLD CUP USA '94 arcing above it, with the denomination $10 inscribed in the lower exergue beneath the cityscape. The composition commemorates the 1994 FIFA World Cup hosted in the United States, combining the iconic host-city imagery with the tournament's official ball motif.

Additional information

Issued to coincide with the 1994 FIFA World Cup held in the United States — the first World Cup awarded to a nation with no significant professional soccer infrastructure at the time — this piece was produced by the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank, which serves eight small island territories sharing a common currency. None of those territories qualified for the tournament.
