Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Princess Diana, who was a beloved member of the British royal family, on the obverse (front side), while the reverse (back side) features a depiction of the royal crest of the Cook Islands, which is a crowned shield with a cross and a palm tree. This design combination serves as a symbol of the Cook Islands' connection to the British monarchy and its own unique cultural heritage.
