Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Anna Akhmatova, a renowned Russian poet, on the obverse side, while the reverse side showcases a depiction of Elizabeth II, the reigning monarch of the Cook Islands at the time of the coin's minting. This unique combination of two prominent female figures on a single coin makes it stand out among other coins in the numismatic world.
