Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Alexander the Great, a prominent historical figure known for his conquests and empire-building, despite being issued by the Cook Islands, a small island nation in the Pacific Ocean. This highlights the diverse cultural influences and historical references that can be found on coins from different countries and territories.
