| Obverse description | Against a deeply mirrored proof field, the obverse features an allegorical female figure — a classical sea nymph or nereid — depicted in high relief, her draped form reclining gracefully amid stylized ocean waves rendered in flowing, curvilinear lines. The figure is shown in three-quarter view, her robes billowing dramatically as if carried by an undersea current, conveying a sense of fluid motion. The denomination '1$' appears in the lower left field. The curved legend 'REPUBLIC OF PALAU' arcs along the upper periphery, with the date '2001' positioned to the right, all separated from the inner design by a continuous beaded border. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vivid full-color applied scene depicting multiple jellyfish of varying sizes suspended in a deep-blue underwater environment. The dominant central specimen is rendered in translucent white and lavender hues with pink highlights on the bell, its trailing tentacles extending gracefully downward. Smaller jellyfish occupy the left and right fields, while the lower register features a richly colored coral reef floor with red sea fans, green and orange coral formations, and yellow sponges. A bold curved banner intersects the design horizontally, overlaid by the arched legend 'MARINE-LIFE PROTECTION' along the upper periphery, all enclosed within a beaded border. |
