Design
The design of the coin is inspired by the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur, one of the most fascinating myths in Greek Mythology. The reverse depicts Theseus and the Minotaur within the legendary labyrinth. Theseus is holding a torch, while the Minotaur appears to be defending himself with a dagger. The labyrinth is rendered in Ultra-High Relief, which becomes lower as it moves closer to the coin’s center, creating a sophisticated depth effect that culminates with Power Coin’s logo in the center of the design. The obverse of the coin features the Coat of Arms of Palau, together with the inscriptions: “REPUBLIC OF PALAU” – the country of issue – and “20$” – the face value. The outer rim presents an intricate pattern of lines in High Relief that resembles the labyrinth on the coin’s reverse side. At the top of the obverse, the inscription: “THESEUS AND THE MINOTAUR” – the coin’s name; at the bottom, the inscription: “2021” – the year of issue.
