| Obverse description | A dynamic high-relief depiction of Neptune, the god of the sea, dominates the field; the bearded deity is shown seated and holding a trident in his left hand, his robes billowing dramatically behind him. Beneath and around him, a large sea turtle is rendered in fine detail, serving as his marine companion. The composition evokes a classical Baroque style with strong musculature and flowing drapery. The legend REPUBLIC OF PALAU and the date 2000 arc along the upper periphery, while the denomination 200$ appears in the lower left field. A beaded border frames the entire design. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a vibrant full-color enamel scene depicting an underwater coral reef ecosystem set within a circular vignette. Prominently displayed are a large orange fish, a spectacular lionfish with its distinctive fan-like spiny fins rendered in red, green, and white, and a green fish swimming in the background against a deep blue ocean field. Colorful coral formations in purple, orange, and red populate the lower portion of the scene. The legend MARINE LIFE PROTECTION is inscribed in gilt letters along the upper border, with a beaded outer rim encircling the composition. |
