| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed relief depiction of Ayers Rock (Uluru), the iconic Australian sandstone monolith, rising above a textured desert plain rendered in fine parallel lines. A polychrome colour-applied bouquet of native Australian wildflowers, predominantly pink in hue, occupies the lower right field. The series title MOUNTAINS & FLORA arcs along the upper legend. The inscription AYERS ROCK / 863 m appears in the lower left field, and the date 2010 is inscribed on a ribbon banner at the base. |

| Additional information |
Palau has issued commemorative silver pieces tied to UNESCO World Heritage Sites and natural landmarks since the late 1990s, operating almost entirely through licensed distributors rather than domestic circulation — the islands have no meaningful silver mining tradition and the coins are produced by contract mints for the collector market. This piece references Uluru, which the Anangu people had already held under joint management with the Australian government since 1985, a political arrangement that preceded the formal return of full ownership in 2019 by decades.
