Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and Spanish conquistador Pedro de Valdivia on the other, which is unusual as the Cook Islands are not a part of Spain or any other country with a connection to Valdivia. It's also made of silver, which adds to its value and collectibility.
