| Additional information |
Heinrich Lübke served as West Germany's second federal president from 1959 to 1969, a tenure increasingly overshadowed by postwar allegations linking him to forced labor construction projects during the Nazi period. The controversy never fully resolved before his death in 1972. Palau's practice of issuing small-format gold dollars honoring foreign statesmen reflects a broader Pacific micro-state coinage strategy with no domestic monetary function whatsoever — these pieces are struck purely for the collector market.
