| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a multicolour holographic depiction of a Rainbow Lorikeet (Trichoglossus moluccanus) rendered in a faceted, prismatic style, with vibrant blues, greens, yellows, and reds filling the recessed disc. The bird is shown in a three-quarter portrait facing left, its curved beak and ringed eye clearly defined within the geometric colour segments. The legend PACIFIC WILDLIFE arcs along the upper rim in raised Latin lettering, with the date 2006 inscribed below it near the inner border. The surrounding raised rim is finished in polished gold. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays the coat of arms of the Republic of Palau in high relief at centre, depicting a traditional Palauan scene with a navigator aboard a sailing vessel above, flanked by a merman holding a trident and a mermaid within an escutcheon-shaped shield, with the motto RAINBOW'S END inscribed on a scroll at the base of the arms. Eight five-pointed stars are arranged around the field in a circular pattern, flanking the arms on either side. The legend REPUBLIC OF PALAU arcs along the upper rim in raised Latin lettering, and the denomination 200 $ appears in large numerals along the lower rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Palau's gold coinage of the mid-2000s was issued under licensing arrangements common to small Pacific island nations that retain nominal monetary authority while outsourcing production entirely to private minting houses — in this case, almost certainly a European facility. The country's GDP at the time was under $200 million USD, making a $200-face-value gold coin a largely symbolic instrument aimed squarely at the collector market rather than any domestic monetary function.
The Rainbow Lorikeet is native to Australia and nearby island chains but not Palau itself, a geographic curiosity that underscores the purely commercial logic behind the series.
