| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a dramatic scene commemorating the sinking of RMS Titanic, showing the ship's towering hull in the background with two overcrowded lifeboats pulling away across stylised waves in the foreground. Figures of survivors are rendered in relief within the boats, one of which is shown being rowed to safety, while an iceberg is visible in the upper right field. The curved legend 'ABANDON SHIP - 20 BOATS - 706 SAVED' arcs along the upper periphery, with 'RMS TITANIC' inscribed in a recessed panel at the lower centre, and 'CENTENARY' along the bottom rim, flanked by a small coloured White Star Line house flag applied in enamel. |

The Royal National Institution for the Preservation of Life from Shipwreck — now the RNLI — was founded in 1824 by Sir William Hillary, who had personally participated in multiple rescues off the Isle of Man. Cook Islands commemorative issues of this type are struck by private minting houses under license, with the gold plating applied over copper blanks as a cost-reduction measure that became standard practice for this market segment around 2008.
