The Ace of Spades is traditionally the highest-value entry in a deck of playing cards. In fortune-telling, gambler’s superstitions, and popular culture, it has come to signify mystery, darkness, and even death, but also to represent change and new beginnings. It’s a powerful symbol for those facing difficult challenges and was used by paratroopers in the Second World War as a good luck symbol painted on their helmets in tribute to the many pots it had helped them win in company-wide poker tournaments. The Republic of Palau commemorates this card with beautiful, shaped coins made with the most up-to-date minting technology, the 2023 1/2 Gram Palau Gold Ace of Spades Shaped Coin now available from JM Bullion.

The Republic of Palau and the Mayer Mint have partnered to help collectors and investors up the ante in the coming year with an extraordinary gold collectible. Produced with trademarked Coin Investment Trust minting technology that makes it possible to strike small amounts of gold into unusually large sizes, this coin was struck on hyper-thin planchets that nevertheless produce clean shapes, sharp design, and coins of overall excellent quality.
The 2023 Palau Gold Ace of Spades Shaped Coin displays a playing-card shape and a gorgeous satin-like silk finish, and ships inside a secure acrylic capsule that ensures its readiness for display on arrival. It comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, and JM Bullion tracks and fully insures each shipment. Given the limited supply in the mintage, it’s a good idea to order early.
The coin’s obverse side features the distinctive emblem associated with the coinage of the Republic of Palau: Poseidon under a compass rose flanked by a treasure chest and a mermaid, set on a shield with the letters “Rainbow’s End.” This is surrounded by a decorative design, the inscription “Republic of Palau” above, and the coin’s face value below.
The reverse side features an Ace of Spades design, much as it would appear on an ordinary playing card but rendered in strikingly sharp detail in the pure gold medium.
