| Additional information |
Woodstock's 50th anniversary in 2019 generated a wave of licensed commemoratives, and this is among the more unusual in format — the elongated 40×127 mm dimensions replicate the shape of an actual festival ticket. Cook Islands has issued currency under New Zealand's Crown since 1965, giving the territory legal authority to produce collector coinage that circulates nowhere but trades heavily in the secondary market.
The original Woodstock festival ran August 15–18, 1969, on Max Yasgur's dairy farm in Bethel, New York — not Woodstock itself.
