Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse depicts three musicians of the RMS Titanic's band performing on the ship's open deck, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. To the left, a violinist stands playing his instrument; at centre, a seated cellist bows his instrument; and to the right, a flautist performs while standing. The ship's deck railing is visible in the background, evoking the legendary final performance. The arched legend "NEARER MY GOD TO THEE" appears in the upper portion of the field, with RMS TITANIC inscribed across the lower field above the word CENTENARY, accompanied by a small enamelled White Star Line pennant.

Aanvullende informatie

Issued under Cook Islands' long-running commemorative licensing program, which has produced hundreds of gold-plated copper pieces aimed squarely at the thematic collector market rather than numismatic circulation. "The Band Played On" refers to the Titanic's orchestra, whose members continued playing as the ship sank in April 1912 — the centenary of which this coin marks. All eight musicians perished. None were ever formally employed by White Star Line; they were contracted through an agency and received no survivor benefits.
