Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued by the Cook Islands, a small island nation in the Pacific Ocean, to commemorate the first anniversary of the euro, which was the official currency of the European Union at the time. This coin features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and the emblem of the euro on the other. It is made of copper-nickel and weighs 24.9 grams. Despite being a non-circulating coin, it is still considered a collectible item among numismatists and those interested in currency.
