| Additional information |
Cook Islands has issued commemorative silver under its own authority since 1972, a arrangement that lets the territory generate revenue through collector markets while New Zealand retains responsibility for its everyday currency. The Mona Lisa piece is part of a broader series of large-format silver releases tied to famous artworks, produced for the international numismatic market rather than any domestic circulation need. These are manufactured collectibles in the strictest sense — legal tender by assignment, not by function.
