| Additional information |
The Bounty mutiny of 1789 has a direct administrative connection to the Cook Islands: HMS Bounty's ultimate destination was Tahiti, and the broader Pacific theater of late 18th-century British exploration encompassed the island groups that would eventually fall under New Zealand's administrative oversight, including the Cooks. The ship never reached these islands, but Fletcher Christian and eight other mutineers did settle nearby — on Pitcairn, whose entire population today descends from the Bounty's crew.
KM#1473 is a bullion-adjacent issue, struck to one troy ounce in .999 silver across the 2009–2010 window. Cook Islands has used the Bounty motif across dozens of issues since the 1970s, making variant attribution by year and reverse die essential for precise identification.
