| Additional information |
Palau has operated as a prolific producer of collector-focused legal tender since the 1990s, licensing its monetary authority to foreign mints — in this case almost certainly the Coin Invest Trust (CIT) operation in Liechtenstein, which has manufactured the majority of Palau's numismatic output. The Ramses II issue is part of a broader "Ancient Egypt" themed series aimed squarely at the thematic collector market, with no connection to Palauan history or culture whatsoever.
The embedded Swarovski element is a manufacturing addition that voids any serious numismatic consideration but keeps the piece competitive in the gift and novelty collector segment where Palau's licensed issues genuinely sell.
