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 symbol of the euro on the other, highlighting the country's connection to the global economy. Despite being a non-circulating coin, it is still considered a unique and collectible item among numismatists.
