Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a full-color mosaic-style portrait of Saint James the Less (Sanctus Iacobus Minor), depicted in Byzantine iconographic tradition with a golden halo, brown curly hair and beard, and draped robes in blue tones. The image faithfully reproduces the style of early Christian mosaic art. The legend SANCTUS IACOBUS MINOR arcs along the upper periphery in red lettering, while XII APOSTOLI is inscribed vertically along the left border, also in red. The date 2009 appears at the lower right of the design, and the portrait is surrounded by a beaded inner border.

Aanvullende informatie

Palau's dollar-denomination collector series issued through the late 2000s were produced under licensing arrangements with international minting houses — the coins were legal tender in name but never intended for circulation on an island nation whose de facto currency is the US dollar. The Saint James Minor issue belongs to a religious apostle series that Palau, a predominantly Catholic country, had particular cultural reason to commission.

KM#271 was struck in silver-plated copper-nickel rather than fine silver, placing it firmly in the lower tier of this series.
