2017 SAND DOLLAR - 1 GRAM GOLD COIN PALAU $1 NGC 70
Sand dollars are popular souvenirs collected by tourists and beachcombers around the world. The sun-bleached skeletons of these sea urchins resemble old Spanish and American dollar coins, which lead early settlers to refer to them as sand dollars. In Spanish speaking countries they are often known as ?galleta de mar? – sea biscuit or sea cookie. The gold coin represents a sand dollar in a very literal sense. It carries a face value of one dollar issued by the Republic of Palau. The coins feature a realistic reverse design and shape. Silver coin is Palau’s coat-of-arms and five cut-out holes.
