KM#503 Prussia), occupying the central and right portions of the field against a frosted mirror background. The denomination '5$' appears to the left of the portrait in the field. The circular legend 'REPUBLIC OF PALAU' arcs above, and the date '1999' descends along the right periphery, both separated from the inner field by a continuous beaded border. |
