| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features a full-color reproduction of Peter Paul Rubens's painting 'Christ's Entry into Jerusalem,' depicting Christ mounted on a donkey and robed in orange, surrounded by a multitude of figures, some laying garments at his path. The rectangular color print is framed on its left and right sides by columns of six baguette-cut green crystals set into the coin's surface. Flanking the central panel are raised architectural elements in the Baroque style. The arc legend MASTERPIECES OF ART appears at the top of the field above a decorative cartouche with cherub motifs, while PETER PAUL RUBENS is inscribed along the lower arc and the date 2017 appears in the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cook Islands has issued devotional silver rounds under government authority since the early 2000s, a program that has drawn criticism from some numismatists for prioritizing collector revenue over coherent monetary policy — the islands' actual circulating currency remains the New Zealand dollar. This piece belongs to a wave of large-format religious themed issues that flooded the market through that decade, produced for the Pacific collector trade rather than any domestic use.
KM#2636 is one of several Cook Islands pieces from 2017 referencing New Testament narrative subjects, all sharing the same 93.3g specification.
