One interesting fact about the 2003 Cook Islands $1 Elizabeth II (Aquarius) gold-plated copper-nickel coin is that it features a unique astrological design, with the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by a depiction of the constellation Aquarius, which is said to represent the queen's star sign. This design was created to commemorate the queen's 50th anniversary on the throne and to highlight her association with the astrological sign of Aquarius, which is known for its humanitarian and philanthropic qualities. The coin's unique design and limited mintage make it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists and fans of the British royal family.
