Interesting fact
The 1990 Cook Islands $5 Elizabeth II (Chimpanzee) coin is a unique collector's item because it features a chimpanzee on the reverse side, which is unusual for a coin featuring a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The chimpanzee is depicted in a naturalistic pose, sitting on a tree branch and looking straight at the viewer. This design was created by the artist, Ian Rank-Broadley, who is known for his wildlife artwork. The coin's design and the use of copper-nickel as the material make it stand out among other coins featuring the Queen's image.
