Additional information

Issued to mark the July 1986 wedding of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, this is among the heavier gold commemoratives produced for a British royal event by a Pacific island issuer — a category that proliferated sharply through the 1980s as Cook Islands aggressively expanded its commemorative program under licensing arrangements. The .916 fineness places it at traditional crown gold standard, though at 44 grams the bullion value has always dominated any numismatic premium.
