| Aanvullende informatie |
Cook Islands has issued commemorative dollars under licensing arrangements since the 1970s, producing hundreds of themed pieces with little connection to the territory itself. This 2012 centenary issue marks the hundredth anniversary of the Titanic's April 15 sinking — a disaster that killed approximately 1,500 people, triggered the first international conference on maritime safety, and led directly to the establishment of the International Ice Patrol, still operational today.
The "Shocking News" designation refers to the moment shore stations and vessels began receiving distress signals from a ship considered practically unsinkable by its operators, if not by its builders.
