| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a finely detailed relief panorama of the Zugspitze, Germany's highest peak, its rugged rocky face occupying the upper and central field beneath the series legend MOUNTAINS & FLORA arcing along the upper border. In the lower right foreground, two vivid blue gentian flowers (Gentiana acaulis) are depicted in full color enamel with green foliage, contrasting strikingly against the silver mountain relief. An inscription in a rectangular cartouche at the lower left reads ZUGSPITZE / 2962 m, and the year date 2009 appears on a ribbon banner along the lower margin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Palau has issued collector silver under its own authority since 1992, despite having no independent currency in circulation — the US dollar serves all domestic transactions. The Zugspitze issue is part of a long-running series pairing Palau's legal tender framework with European alpine and geographic subjects, a combination that makes commercial sense only in the German and Austrian collector markets where the mountain carries genuine national significance.
The Zugspitze, at 2,962 meters, sits on the German-Austrian border; its summit was first reached in 1820 by a Bavarian military surveying team.
