Gold Half Gram 2022 In Memoriam Queen Elizabeth II, Coin from Cook Islands
CoinGold Half Gram 2022 In Memoriam Queen Elizabeth II

The Cook Islands, a sovereign state in free association with New Zealand, uses two official legal tender currencies. The New Zealand Dollar circulates in parallel with the local Cook Islands Dollar; at the same time, the government also authorises many legal tender coins in the Cook Islands Dollar currency for collector's purposes. Many of them are in standard sizes, including the half gram (0.5 g) of gold mini-coin format - such as this coin.

This coin was issued to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II, who died on 8 September 2022 after more than 70 years on the throne.

The Mint says:
She has been one of the most influential figures in the 20th century, redefining the modern conceptions of monarchy. While the political landscape both in the United Kingdom and the world has undergone drastic changes during her reign of 70 years, Elizabeth II has remained a popular monarch and was much beloved throughout the world. It is the end of a remarkable era. CIT would like to pay tribute to her life’s work by releasing two extraordinary coins.

Obverse

The obverse of the coin shows the crowned mature head of Queen Elizabeth II facing right (her effigy known as the "Fourth Portrait"). The Queen wears the "Girls of Great Britain and Ireland" diamond tiara, a wedding gift from Queen Mary (Her Majesty's grandmother) in 1947 - which she also has on the Machin and the Gottwald portraits.

In small letters below the head, the artist's initials IRB (for Ian Rank-Broadley).

Around the effigy is the monarch's legend and the face value: ELIZABETH II COOK ISLANDS 5 DOLLARS.

Obverse Inscription ELIZABETH II COOK ISLANDS 5 DOLLARS
