| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the fourth definitive portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, rendered in high relief against a darkened field with a subtle radial gradient effect. The Queen wears the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara and pearl earring, with finely detailed hair. The engraver's initials 'IRB' appear in small characters below the truncation of the bust. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' is inscribed along the left rim and 'COOK ISLANDS' along the right rim, with the date '2014' in the lower exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cook Islands has operated one of the more prolific bullion and commemorative programs in the Pacific, licensing its name to private minting operations — primarily the German firm B.H. Mayer's Kunstprägeanstalt — that produce high-face-value pieces with negligible practical circulation. This particular issue corresponds to the lunar year beginning January 31, 2014, part of a twelve-year series cycle that effectively functions as a 5-troy-ounce gold bullion product dressed in commemorative clothing.
Face value bears no relationship to metal content at any realistic exchange rate for the Cook Islands dollar, a currency pegged to the New Zealand dollar.
