Additional information

Vittorio Veneto was the final major Italian offensive of World War I, launched in late October 1918, which shattered the Austro-Hungarian army and effectively ended the war on the Italian front three days before the broader Armistice. Palau has issued numerous silver pieces commemorating naval and military history under its licensed coinage program, which is administered entirely by external minting agencies — the island nation itself has no domestic mint and a population under 20,000.

KM#395 is part of a broader Palau commemorative series that ran through the 2000s and 2010s, produced primarily for the collector market rather than any circulation purpose.
