| Reverse description | The central field presents a colorful depiction of a Royal Flush in hearts — the ten, jack, queen, king, and ace of hearts — rendered as a fanned hand of playing cards in vivid red and white coloring. The legend GOOD LUCK is repeated five times around the periphery in green Latin lettering, separated by red suit symbols, creating a continuous circular inscription. The numeral 1 appears to the right of the card motif within the field. The serrated outer rim mirrors the obverse, consistent with the casino chip aesthetic of the issue. |

| Additional information |
Palau has issued novelty legal tender under licensing arrangements since the 1990s, largely targeting the collector and themed gift market rather than any circulation purpose. The "Royal Flush" dollar belongs to a playing-card series produced under that framework — clay composite construction places it firmly outside conventional minting practice, closer to casino chip manufacture than coinage.
