Interesting fact
The 1994 Marshall Islands 10 Dollar Jupiter coin is made of brass, which is an alloy of copper and zinc. The use of brass in coinage dates back to ancient times and was chosen for this coin due to its durability, resistance to corrosion, and ability to be easily stamped or molded into various shapes and designs. The coin's design features an image of the planet Jupiter, which is the largest planet in our solar system and is known for its distinctive banded appearance. The coin's obverse side features the Marshall Islands coat of arms, which includes a depiction of a traditional Marshallese stick chart used for navigation.
