Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Non-circulating coin 1 Dollar - Elizabeth II (James I) 2008 from Cook Islands made of Gold plated copper-nickel weighing 25g is that it features a unique double-portrait design, with both Queen Elizabeth II and King James I depicted on the obverse side of the coin. This design was created to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the Cook Islands' discovery by James Cook in 1769. The coin's gold plating and limited mintage of 2,008 pieces also add to its collectibility and value among numismatists.
