Obverse description Central field dominated by an elaborate Rococo-style arched window with a genuine purple Tiffany art glass insert, set within an ornately carved architectural facade featuring scrollwork, acanthus foliage, and grotesque mask motifs in high relief. Flanking pilasters with richly decorated capitals frame the composition on either side. The national arms of the Republic of Palau appear in a cartouche at the lower right, surrounded by a circular legend. The denomination '10 DOLLARS' is inscribed along the lower exergue in raised lettering. The entire surface is given an antiqued finish, enhancing the sculptural depth of the Rococo ornamentation.

Reverse description Central field features a Rococo-style arched window with a genuine purple Tiffany art glass insert, framed by an elaborately sculpted surround of asymmetrical scrollwork, foliate cartouches, and ornamental mouldings in high relief. A cherub figure is depicted in full relief at the left, leaning gracefully against a fluted column entwined with garlands of flowers. The architectural setting evokes the exuberance of 18th-century Rococo interior design. The legend 'TIFFANY ART 2010 ROCOCO' is inscribed on a shaped cartouche tablet in the lower field. The antiqued silver finish accentuates the fine sculptural detail throughout the composition.
