Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Dollars - Elizabeth II (Uranus) 2009 coin from Cook Islands is that it features a unique design that showcases the planet Uranus and its moons, Ariel and Miranda, on the reverse side. This design is particularly interesting because Uranus is often referred to as the "ice giant" planet due to its composition primarily made up of water, ammonia, and methane ices, and this is reflected in the coin's design. Additionally, the coin's obverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, making it a unique blend of astronomical and royal themes.
