Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique double-portrait design, with Queen Elizabeth II on one side and Pope John Paul II on the other. This is a rare design element for a coin, and it was specifically created to commemorate the historic visit of Pope John Paul II to the Cook Islands in 2009.
