| Additional information |
Cook Islands has issued commemorative silver in formats this small before, but at under 1.5 grams this piece sits at the outer edge of what a modern mint can strike legibly in sterling. The 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing in 2009 triggered a flood of issues from non-spacefaring nations with convenient licensing arrangements — Cook Islands among the most prolific.
