| Obverse description | Central composition featuring the national arms and symbols of the Republic of Palau, flanked by a highly detailed engraved view of the interior arch of the Taj Mahal inlaid with a genuine piece of amber set within the pointed Mughal arch, simulating the warm glow of the monument's interior. The surrounding field carries fine architectural detail consistent with the coin's thematic series. The legend 'REPUBLIC OF PALAU RAINBOW'S END 10 DOLLARS' arcs around the design. |

| Reverse description | Highly detailed antique-finished exterior view of the Taj Mahal mausoleum in Agra, India, rendered in fine relief with meticulous architectural precision. The iconic central onion dome flanked by four smaller domed chattris and two minarets dominates the upper field, while the ornate arched iwan gateway and intricate pietra dura floral decorations are faithfully reproduced on the facade. To the left, one of the four corner minarets rises prominently, and the left arch contains an inset of genuine amber replicating the warm luminous interior of the monument. The formal reflecting pool and the ornamental forecourt with cypress trees and the central water channel recede in perspective toward the lower field. The legend 'TAJ MAHAL' appears in the upper right field and the date '2014' is inscribed at the base. |
