| Obverse description | The obverse displays the national coat of arms of the Republic of Palau, rendered in fine detail within a shield-shaped escutcheon surmounted by a traditional outrigger canoe. The central device depicts a crowned figure of Neptune seated with a trident, accompanied by a mermaid, flanked by a treasure chest and ocean waves, all enclosed within a decorative floral border. The inscription RAINBOW'S END appears beneath the shield, and the denomination 1$ is placed in the lower field. The legend REPUBLIC OF PALAU arcs along the upper periphery, flanked by six five-pointed stars arranged symmetrically on either side. |

| Additional information |
Palau has issued novelty bullion pieces under various licensing arrangements since the 1990s, and this four-leaf clover gold falls squarely into that category — a private mint product sold primarily through the gift and collectibles market rather than through numismatic channels. The KM# assignment gives it a catalog identity, but circulation was never the point.
