| Beschrijving voorzijde | A barebreasted mermaid with flowing hair and a floral wreath is depicted seated upon an ornately decorated throne, facing slightly left, holding an upright paddle in her right hand. Her scaled fish tail curls downward into stylized ocean waves at the base of the design. To the left, traditional Palauan bai (meeting house) architectural elements are visible in the field. The denomination '1 $' appears to the right, while the circumferential legend 'REPUBLIC OF PALAU 1993' arcs around the upper portion of the coin, all within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Palau gained constitutional government in 1981 and entered free association with the United States in 1994, making 1993 a transitional moment in which the new republic was actively establishing its numismatic program. Essai pieces from this period were produced in extremely limited quantities as trial strikes — submitted to issuing authorities for design approval before standard production runs — and platinum essais of this type rarely entered any distribution channel at all.
The one-troy-ounce platinum weight places this squarely in bullion-coin territory by mass, yet its essai status removes it entirely from that commercial framework.
