Interesting fact

The 1996 Cook Islands $5 Elizabeth II (Gorillas) silver coin features a unique design that showcases a family of gorillas on the reverse side, while the obverse side bears the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This coin is a non-circulating legal tender, meaning it is not meant to be used as regular currency but rather as a collector's item. Its unique design and limited mintage make it a valuable addition to any coin collection.
