The denomination '10$' appears on a tower parapet at upper left, the date '2021' is incused at lower right, and the shield-shaped coat of arms of the Republic of Palau, inscribed 'REPUBLIC OF PALAU' and 'RAINBOW'S END', is prominently displayed in the lower centre of the field. |

| 裏面の説明 | Highly detailed antiqued panoramic scene depicting the ancient city of Babylon in high relief. The composition centres on a stepped ziggurat rising against a clouded sky in the background. In the middle ground, the celebrated Ishtar Gate is evoked through polychrome coloured friezes of walking lions and striding dragons rendered in vivid blue and gold enamel-style colouring against lapis lazuli-coloured walls. Two large winged bull lamassu figures stand guard on pedestals, flanking human figures in Babylonian attire. The foreground features lush tropical vegetation, palm trees, and additional figures of warriors and attendants, evoking the legendary Hanging Gardens of Babylon. |

Palau has issued commemorative silver rounds under its legal tender framework since the 1990s, leveraging a licensing arrangement that allows foreign mints — predominantly Austrian and German operations — to produce collector pieces bearing Palauan face values. The "Babylon" issue belongs to a broader ancient civilizations series, part of a market-driven collector program rather than any domestic monetary need.
Palau itself uses the US dollar for everyday transactions. The 10-dollar denomination is chosen specifically to satisfy legal tender technicalities while pricing the piece well above face value on the secondary market.
