| Beschrijving keerzijde | A leaping bottlenose dolphin is depicted in polychrome enamel at the center of the field, shown in dynamic profile with its body arched upward above a stylized blue sea. Behind the dolphin, a large circular orange sun provides a striking chromatic backdrop. The entire composition is set against a darkened field, enhancing the color contrast. The curved legend MARINE LIFE PROTECTION is inscribed along the upper and right periphery in raised Latin letters, all within a beaded inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Palau's 1994 Marine Life Protection series launched one of the Pacific's earliest conservation-themed coinage programs, and this essai — a trial strike submitted for design or production approval — predates the circulating issue by testing die alignment and metal flow before full authorization. Essais of this type were typically produced in minimal quantities, often fewer than a dozen examples, and were not released through normal distribution channels.
The copper-nickel composition here distinguishes it from the silver collector strikes that dominated Palau's marine series.
