Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Cook Islands' 2004 $1 Silver Pearl Harbor coin is that it features a unique reverse design that depicts a stylized representation of the attack on Pearl Harbor, with a focus on the USS Arizona Memorial. The memorial is shown in the center of the coin, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves, while the words "Pearl Harbor" and "December 7, 1941" are inscribed at the top and bottom of the coin, respectively. This design serves as a poignant reminder of the tragic events that took place on that fateful day, and the coin's silver content and limited mintage make it a highly sought-after collectible for numismatists and history buffs alike.
