| Beschrijving keerzijde | The entire reverse field presents a full-color micromosaic reproduction of Leonardo da Vinci's celebrated painting, the Mona Lisa, rendered in thousands of individually colored tesserae. The composition depicts the three-quarter bust portrait of the subject with her characteristic enigmatic expression, long dark hair framing her face, set against a luminous golden-yellow background with a suggestion of a landscape beyond. The Roman numeral date MMXVIII is inscribed in the upper right field of the mosaic. The micromosaic coloring technique faithfully replicates the warm amber, ochre, and green tones of the original masterwork. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Palau has operated a prolific commemorative coin program since the 1990s, licensing cultural and artistic imagery through agreements that have little to do with the nation's own history — the Mona Lisa being a straightforward example of this model. The program generates revenue through collector sales rather than circulation, and Palau's nominal face values bear no relationship to the coins' actual market positioning.
KM#812 is part of a broader series of large-format silver issues from this period that incorporated color printing and occasionally applied elements — techniques that complicate long-term preservation.
