| Obverse description | The obverse features the coat of arms of the Republic of Palau rendered in high relief at center, depicting a crowned Neptune seated and holding a trident, accompanied by a mermaid, with a crescent moon and star above, all within a ornate shield. A small figure in a traditional canoe appears above the shield in the upper field. The legend REPUBLIC OF PALAU arcs along the upper rim, flanked by eight stars on each side. The series title RAINBOW'S END appears on a label within the lower portion of the shield, and the denomination 5$ is inscribed at the bottom of the field. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed relief depiction of Dykh-Tau, the second-highest peak in the Caucasus range, occupying the majority of the field. A colorized inset in the lower right renders vivid pink and red alpine flora — likely Caucasian rhododendron — rendered in full color against a green background, providing a striking contrast to the monochrome silver mountain. The series title MOUNTAINS & FLORA arcs boldly along the upper rim, with THE 7 SECOND SUMMITS inscribed in the upper field. A cartouche at lower left bears the mountain name DYKH-TAU and its elevation 5204m, while the date 2011 appears on a scroll banner at the bottom center. |
