2023 Proof Cook Islands Silver Striking Heads The Vexed Man Coin l JM Bullion™

The Mint says about this coin:

Well-known German artist Franz Xaver Messerschmidt, during the last years of his life, created a series of busts each featuring a head displaying an emotion. It is believed that up to sixty-nine of these character heads were created, yet only around forty-nine have survived. One of the most perplexing busts in this collection is the Vexed Man.
