| Reverse description | The reverse displays a silver-plated pop-up insert in the shape of the unified map of Germany, raised in relief against the gold-plated field. The internal borders of the former East and West German states are engraved within the map's outline, and the celebrated reunification slogan WIR SIND EIN VOLK is inscribed across the centre of the map. The curved legend GERMANY - 20TH ANNIVERSARY REUNIFICATION runs along the upper rim, while the dual dates 1990 and 2010 flank the map in the lower field, and the denomination 1 DOLLAR appears along the bottom rim. |

| Additional information |
Nauru's licensing of its monetary authority for commemorative issues has long been a commercial arrangement rather than a sovereign necessity — the island's actual economy runs on Australian dollars. The 2010 reunification piece is a product of that cottage industry, issued through European coin marketing firms targeting the German collector market on the twentieth anniversary of the October 1990 unification treaty taking effect.
