| Obverse lettering | MICROPUZZLE REPUBLIC OF PALAU RAINBOW'S END 20$ SPECIAL |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents a full-color reproduction of Michelangelo's iconic fresco 'The Creation of Adam' from the Sistine Chapel ceiling, rendered in vivid polychrome enamel and styled to resemble an incomplete jigsaw puzzle, with numerous puzzle pieces depicted as missing or scattered across the composition. The reclining nude figure of Adam occupies the left portion of the field, his left arm extended toward the right, while the robed figure of God the Father, surrounded by angels and draped in a billowing mantle, reaches toward Adam from the right, the two index fingers nearly touching at the centre of the composition. The date 2023 is inscribed in small characters among the puzzle pieces in the upper right area of the field. The entire circular design is edged with the characteristic interlocking puzzle-piece border consistent with the Micropuzzle series. |
