| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a skeletal hand grasping a potion bottle inscribed 'Soul' in the legend, surrounded by playing cards including aces, poker chips, coins, and a small inset disk bearing the Republic of Palau coat of arms with the legend 'REPUBLIC OF PALAU' and denomination '20$'. A Grim Reaper figure appears in the upper left, clutching a diminutive human soul. The entire composition is rendered in obsidian black ruthenium plating with selective color highlighting on key design elements, imparting a dark, atmospheric aesthetic characteristic of the series. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a male figure seated at a gaming table, displaying a Royal Flush hand in playing cards — Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and Ten — representing the highest possible value in poker. In his left hand the player holds a soul vessel, wagered as his ultimate stake. In a moment of dramatic irony, one of the aces begins transforming into a skull, signifying Death's intervention and the legend '...BUT DEATH CAN CHEAT YOU' inscribed in the field. The date '2022' appears within the composition, and the scene is executed in high relief with obsidian black ruthenium finish and selective polychrome color application. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Palau has operated as a prolific vehicle for novelty collector coinage since the late 1990s, issuing pieces under licensing arrangements that have little connection to the island nation's domestic economy or monetary policy. The Royal Flush series falls squarely in that category — private mint product dressed in legal-tender clothing, with the "Dark" variant distinguished by black ruthenium treatment applied over the silver substrate.
KM#969 is a modern fantasy piece with no historical monetary function.
