Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the involvement of Cook Island soldiers in World War I. The coin's obverse features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, while the reverse depicts a soldier in uniform standing in front of a desert landscape, with the words "Lest We Forget" inscribed below. This design is particularly notable because it highlights the contributions of the Cook Islands, a small island nation in the Pacific, to the war effort. Additionally, the use of silver and the coin's high level of detail make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
