| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a detailed relief rendering of the Grumman F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter aircraft in three-quarter view occupying the upper and central field, with radiating lines suggesting speed or sunburst emanating behind it. A second, smaller enemy aircraft — rendered in a diving attitude consistent with a Japanese Zero — appears in the lower right field, evoking a combat scene from the Pacific Theater of World War II. The legend F6F HELLCAT arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 10 / TEN / DOLLARS is inscribed in the lower left field. The mintmark S appears to the right of center in the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The F6F Hellcat was the U.S. Navy's answer to the Japanese Zero's early dominance in the Pacific — designed by Grumman after combat data from captured Zero specifications was rushed to their engineers in 1942. By the time the type reached fleet service, it achieved a kill ratio exceeding 19:1 against Japanese aircraft. The Marshall Islands issued a long run of brass novelty commemoratives through the early 1990s targeting the collector market directly, with no genuine circulation intended.
