| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field depicts the crowned and bearded effigy of Neptune, god of the sea, seated upon a rocky outcrop and holding an upright trident in his left hand, flanked by two mermaids resting against him. The composition is rendered in high relief against a plain field. The legend REPUBLIC OF PALAU arcs along the upper periphery, with the date 2008 at the right, and the denomination 1$ appears at the bottom center. The entire design is framed by a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Palau began issuing themed wildlife dollars in the 1990s under a licensing arrangement that effectively outsourced the entire program to a German marketing firm — these coins were never intended for domestic circulation and were produced solely as collector items sold through international dealers. The white shark series sat within a broader Pacific island commemorative boom of that decade, where nations with minimal mint infrastructure lent their issuing authority to foreign promoters in exchange for a fee.
KM#449 is copper-nickel, placing it at the lower-cost end of the Palauan commemorative output, which ran parallel higher-value silver versions of many of the same designs.
