| Reverse description | Two adult long-haired goats stand prominently in the central and right field, rendered in full color with naturalistic golden-tan tones, facing the viewer in a three-quarter stance. A smaller kid goat appears in the lower left foreground near a winding river, set against an engraved landscape of stylized mountains and scrolling clouds. The Chinese character for 'goat' (羊) is inscribed in the upper left field alongside decorative cloud motifs, with additional cloud imagery appearing in mirror-polished relief in the upper right corner. The engraver's initials 'TV' and the Perth Mint 'P' mintmark appear discreetly in the right field. The inscription '1oz 999 SILVER' is engraved along the lower left border. |

Cook Islands has issued lunar series coinage under New Zealand's currency framework since the 1990s, leveraging its self-governing status to produce collector issues that never circulate domestically. The 2015 Goat falls within the Chinese Lunar calendar cycle where the Year of the Goat ran from February 19, 2015 to February 7, 2016.
