Additional information

Palau's ongoing commemorative dollar program has produced hundreds of issues since the 1990s, largely sold through European distributors to thematic collectors rather than circulated domestically. This piece marks the 2005 election of Pope Benedict XVI — Joseph Ratzinger's selection on the fourth ballot of the conclave following the death of John Paul II, the fastest conclave result since 1939.
