| Reverse description | The reverse presents a three-dimensional stylised depiction of two dice in perspective, rendered in high relief against a satin-finished field. The left die displays six pips on its face and five pips on its visible side, while the right die shows six pips on its upper face and five pips on its lateral face. The coin's distinctive outline conforms precisely to the silhouette of the two interlocking dice, giving the piece its sculptural, shaped character. No legends or inscriptions appear on the reverse. |

| Additional information |
Palau has operated a prolific legal tender licensing program since the 1990s, contracting private minting houses — primarily in Austria and Germany — to produce low-denomination novelty issues that bear its authority but are never intended for domestic circulation. This piece is one such product: a collectible sold directly into the numismatic and gift market, with the one-dollar face value carrying no practical monetary relationship to the gold content whatsoever.
