| Aanvullende informatie |
Palau's micro-gold issues of the mid-2000s were produced primarily for the collector and novelty market, exploiting the country's status as a sovereign issuer under the Compact of Free Association with the United States. The Buffalo Weaver — an African bird with no geographic connection to Palau — reflects the series' opportunistic approach to subject matter, licensing imagery with broad international appeal rather than anything tied to Palauan natural history.
At 0.5 grams, these were among the smallest legal-tender gold coins produced by any sovereign mint at the time of issue.
