| Obverse description | The obverse presents the coin viewed from the reverse side of the three-dimensional ghost-shaped flan, depicting the underside of a billowing shroud-like form with flowing drapery folds rendered in high relief with an antiqued finish. At the center, a recessed circular field bears the national arms of Palau — a traditional shield supported by decorative elements — surrounded by the legend REPUBLIC OF PALAU arching above. Beneath the arms appears the series inscription RAINBOW'S END, with the denomination 5$ and the date 2022 struck below in the field. |

| Additional information |
Palau has operated a prolific commemorative bullion program since the 1990s, licensing its issuing authority to European minting houses — primarily the Münze Österreich and various private mints — that produce themed collector pieces with no meaningful circulation history. The "Ghost" release belongs to a broader horror and supernatural series aimed squarely at the thematic novelty market.
KM#941 attribution places it within a catalog sequence that had grown unwieldy enough by the 2020s that Krause cross-referencing for Palauan issues requires verification against the issuer's own documentation.
