| Obverse description | Right-facing diademed and draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the Ian Rank-Broadley portrait, wearing a pearl earring and the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left periphery, COOK ISLANDS along the upper right, and the date 2009 descends along the right rim. The denomination 1 DOLLAR appears in the lower field beneath the portrait, all legends in raised Latin capitals against a polished field. |

| Additional information |
Part of a broader Cook Islands planetary series issued through the Pobjoy Mint, this piece had no domestic circulation purpose — Cook Islands coinage of this type is produced explicitly for the international collector market, with the island government licensing its name and authority in exchange for a share of seigniorage revenue. The arrangement is entirely legal under Cook Islands' status as a self-governing territory in free association with New Zealand.
