| Additional information |
Issued to mark the announcement of Catherine Middleton's first pregnancy, this Cook Islands dollar belongs to a category of licensed commemoratives that Cook Islands has produced prolifically since the 1970s — coins with no meaningful circulation history and no connection to the issuing territory beyond the legal framework that permits their production.
