5 Dollars Daisy parrotfish

Palau has issued collector silver under Pacific wildlife themes since the late 1990s, largely through licensing arrangements with the Coin Invest Trust (CIT) in Liechtenstein, which handles production and distribution for numerous small Pacific island sovereigns with no domestic mint. The daisy parrotfish (Chlorurus sordidus) is widespread across Indo-Pacific reef systems and notable for its role in bioerosion — individuals can produce hundreds of kilograms of sand annually through their feeding on coral.

KM#774 belongs to a crowded field of Palauan wildlife issues marketed primarily to thematic collectors rather than circulators.
