| Obverse description | Against an obsidian black field scattered with multicolored speckles evoking a night sky, three volcanic mountains dominate the composition, the central and largest erupting vigorously with vivid red and yellow polychrome lava streams applied in color. The Palauan coat of arms is rendered in low relief in the lower central field, partially obscured by the volcanic landscape. The curved legend MAGICAL CREATURES AT NIGHT arcs along the upper periphery, with the denomination 10$ and issuer name REPUBLIC OF PALAU inscribed in the lower field. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a highly detailed, stylized phoenix rendered in dramatic high relief against a matte obsidian black field, its body coiled in a circular composition with wings sweeping outward and tail feathers curling inward. The plumage is extensively colored in vivid gradients of red, orange, and golden yellow, evoking living flame, while the darkened recesses of the body retain the black ruthenium-treated surface for contrast. The creature's luminous eyes glow with golden color, and the overall design conveys fierce mythological power through dynamic sculptural relief. The date 2023 appears in the lower exergue. |
