Description: The 'pufferfish', also called blowfish, swellfish, globefish, balloonfish are fish making up the family Tetraodontidae, within the order Tetraodontiformes. They are named for their ability to inflate themselves to several times their normal size by swallowing water or air when threatened. The eyes and internal organs of most pufferfish are highly toxic. They can be found worldwide from about 45 degrees latitude north to 45 degrees latitude south, mostly in salt water near coral reefs or the shore, but some species also live in fresh water or brackish water. This series of "Marine Life Protection" proof one dollar coins has been a hit with collectors since the first coin was issued in 1992. It is hard to say whether the obverse or reverse is the most attractive, but they are becoming exceedingly hard to find. Palau was chosen as the location for the 10th season of the hit reality series Survivor, and this coin depicts regional marine life, as well as a beautiful mermaid. This One Dollar coin is legal tender and has been issued by authority of the government of Palau.
