| Obverse description | The obverse features the fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicted in right-facing profile with a diademed and elaborately coiffed hairstyle. The portrait is rendered with fine detail against a polished mirror field with a frosted relief characteristic of proof coinage. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' arcs along the lower left rim, '100 DOLLARS' along the upper rim, and 'COOK ISLANDS' along the right. The engraver's initials 'IRB' appear beneath the portrait truncation, and the date '2016' is inscribed at the base. |
