10 Dollars - Elizabeth II Peanuts

Cook Islands has long operated as one of the Pacific's most prolific licensing mints, issuing collector pieces under arrangements with IP holders that have no connection to the islands themselves. The Peanuts franchise — owned by Peanuts Worldwide, a joint venture involving DHX Media and the Schulz family trust — has appeared on numerous such issues since the early 2010s. These small-format fractional gold pieces target the gift and novelty collector market rather than serious numismatic buyers.
