| Obverse description | Within the plain rectangular field, the legend 'REPUBLIC OF PALAU' arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering, flanking the large denomination numeral '$10' prominently displayed at centre. The series title 'MARINE-LIFE PROTECTION' curves along the lower periphery, and the date '1995' is inscribed in the lower central field. The composition is entirely typographic, with no pictorial device on this face. |

| Reverse description | A finely modelled figure of a mermaid occupies the full rectangular field, depicted in three-quarter view facing slightly to the left. Her human upper body is adorned with a floral garland across her chest and a wreath of sea flora crowning her long flowing hair. She holds a large conch shell in her raised left hand, while her lower body transitions into a detailed, finely scaled fish tail that sweeps gracefully across the lower portion of the field. The field is plain and unlettered, allowing the richly detailed relief figure to dominate the composition. |
