| Reverse description | A vibrant multicolour underwater ocean scene fills the field, depicting tropical fish, a dolphin, and coral formations rendered in polychrome enamel application against the mirrored proof surface. The emblem of the United Nations — a world map projected within laurel branches — is prominently placed at the lower centre of the design. The legend curves around the periphery in two arcs, commemorating Palau's membership in the United Nations and the organisation's 50th anniversary, with the date 1995 at the base. |

| Additional information |
Palau's 1995 commemorative program preceded the nation's formal entry into the commemorative silver dollar market that would define its numismatic output through the 2000s. This copper-nickel issue was struck the same year Palau celebrated just three years of full UN membership, having been admitted in December 1994 following the end of its Compact of Free Association with the United States.
