| Reverse description | The reverse is struck in the form of a traditional handled beer mug, with the overall outline of the flan itself constituting the primary design element. Three vertical raised ribs adorn the body of the mug, rendered in polished relief against a silk-finished field, evoking the faceted panels of a classic glass stein. Overflowing foam is depicted at the upper portion of the mug, with naturalistic flowing lines suggesting froth cascading over the rim. A loop handle projects to the right of the vessel, fully integrated into the shaped flan. The reverse carries no inscriptions, the sculptural form of the coin serving as the sole decorative element. |

| Additional information |
Palau has built one of the more industrious novelty bullion programs in the Pacific, issuing small-denomination gold pieces under licensing arrangements that target collector markets in Europe and Asia rather than any domestic monetary use. This particular entry in that catalog exists entirely as a manufactured collectible — Palau's nominal face value serves a legal tender formality, nothing more.
