| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a striking, highly detailed full-color portrait of an Asiatic Cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus venaticus) rendered in a photorealistic artistic style, occupying the entire coin face. The cheetah's face is depicted frontally and centered, with intense amber-orange eyes gazing directly outward, set against a dramatic background blending deep indigo and warm golden tones. The characteristic black tear-stripe markings on the cheetah's muzzle are rendered with precision, while the fur transitions from the animal's tawny spotted coat into an abstract dispersing pattern of golden spots towards the right side of the field, evoking the fragmentation and disappearance of the species. The silver milled rim frames the colored design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Palau has operated as one of the more prolific issuers of themed collector coinage since the 1990s, leveraging a licensing arrangement that allows foreign mints — primarily in Europe — to produce issues under Palauan authority with minimal domestic involvement. This piece belongs to that tradition entirely.
The Asiatic cheetah (*Acinonyx jubatus venaticus*) survives in only a single wild population, confined to Iran, with a 2022 census estimating fewer than 12 individuals remaining.
