| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central design features a tall Gothic arched window set within finely engraved cathedral stonework, containing a vibrant colorized inset replicating a medieval stained-glass panel from Chartres Cathedral, depicting a haloed figure — likely the Virgin and Child — rendered in rich blues, reds, and greens. To the right, an engraved elevation of Chartres Cathedral with its twin spires and rose window is shown in precise architectural detail, accompanied by relief renderings of the cathedral's flying buttresses and decorative tracery. The arc legend WINDOWS OF HEAVEN runs along the upper left field, with CHARTRES inscribed in large letters across the lower field and the date 2013 below. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Part of Cook Islands' long-running architectural series, this issue commemorates Chartres Cathedral, whose construction began in earnest after a fire destroyed most of the earlier Romanesque structure in 1194. The rebuild was largely complete within a single generation — extraordinarily fast for Gothic cathedral construction — funded in part by the relic of the Virgin Mary's tunic, which survived the fire and drew pilgrims whose donations financed the work.
