Beschrijving keerzijde A full-colour printed central composition depicts an Allosaurus, a large bipedal theropod dinosaur, striding through a dramatic prehistoric landscape with open jaws revealing serrated teeth, set against a stormy sky with mountains, trees, and a body of water in the background. Flanking the central coloured scene in the surrounding milled field are detailed raised relief depictions of other prehistoric creatures, including what appear to be a sauropod (upper right), a Triceratops (lower right), a smaller dinosaur (lower left), and various Mesozoic flora. The arching legend 'AGE OF THE DINOSAUR' runs along the upper border in bold relief lettering against a darkened background.

Aanvullende informatie

Cook Islands has operated one of the most prolific novelty bullion programs in the Pacific, licensing its sovereign mint authority to third-party producers — primarily European — since the 1980s. This Allosaurus dollar is a product of that arrangement rather than any domestic monetary need; no one on Rarotonga ever spent one.

Gold-plated copper issues of this kind occupy an awkward position in the numismatic record: legal tender by declaration, collectible by marketing, and bullion by neither metal content nor weight.
