| Additional information |
Palau has issued small-format gold dollars under United Nations themes since the early 2000s, exploiting its status as a sovereign issuer with no meaningful domestic circulation requirement. These pieces are produced entirely for the collector market — Palau's actual currency is the U.S. dollar. The KM#883 attribution places this squarely within a long-running series of fractional gold issues that Palau licenses to European distributors, primarily through mints in Austria and the Czech Republic.
