Montgomery's selection for this Cook Islands commemorative sits in a crowded field of 20th-century military figures recycled across Pacific island collector issues — these gold-plated copper pieces are produced in bulk by private minting firms under licensing arrangements, with Cook Islands providing legal tender status in exchange for a share of seigniorage. The coins never circulate domestically.
