The Republic of Palau issued a 5 Dollar "Game Coin". This high relief bronze coin is 180mm (7 inches) in diameter and weighs 680 grams! It is surely a really big coin.

The reverse depicts a treasure hunt game titled "The Treasure of the Cruel Captain". You can actually play the game with two players and a dice to move their markers across the game coin to see who wins the treasure!

The game can be enjoyed by players of any age. The other obverse side features the Coat of Arms of Palau. The coin has an attractive antique finish and comes with a dice and game pieces.
