Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 5 Dollars - Elizabeth II (Shiba Inu) 2022 coin from Cook Islands is that it features a unique design that showcases a Shiba Inu dog, which is a breed of dog that originated in Japan and is known for its distinctive fox-like appearance and independent personality. The coin's design is particularly notable because it is not common to see a non-human subject featured on a coin, especially one that is not a national symbol or icon. The use of a Shiba Inu on the coin adds a touch of whimsy and playfulness to an otherwise traditional coin design, making it stand out from other coins.
