1 Dollar - Elizabeth II Cyprus 2 Euro

This miniature gold piece belongs to Cook Islands' long-running series replicating world coinage in fractional gold — a purely collector-driven program with no circulation intent whatsoever. The Cyprus 2 Euro it references had only just entered circulation that same year, as Cyprus joined the Eurozone on 1 January 2008 after the coin's 2007 issue date, making this gold replica technically contemporaneous with the coin's final design approval phase.
