| Aanvullende informatie |
The Walking Liberty design was created by Adolph Weinman for the U.S. half dollar in 1916 and is widely considered one of the finest American coin designs ever produced. Cook Islands has issued a long series of fractional gold-clad pieces borrowing iconic foreign designs, a practice enabled by the territory's broad autonomy in issuing commemorative and novelty coinage under New Zealand's constitutional framework. This particular piece falls squarely in that commercial collector market — produced for sale, not circulation.
