| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central depiction of HMS Bounty, the famous Royal Navy vessel, shown in full sail from the starboard quarter, with three masts fully rigged and sails billowing, the British ensign flying from the mizzen mast. The intricate network of rigging, shrouds, and standing lines is rendered in fine relief, conveying the grandeur of the late 18th-century armed transport vessel. Below the ship, the denomination '30 DOLLARS' is inscribed in bold lettering, with the weight and purity designation '1 KILO FINE SILVER .999' incused beneath in a smaller font along the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bounty mutiny of 1789 remains one of the most documented events in Pacific maritime history, partly because the subsequent court-martial proceedings generated an unusual volume of Admiralty records. Fletcher Christian and the mutineers who settled Pitcairn Island in 1790 established a community whose descendants still inhabit the island — and whose territory falls under New Zealand administration, giving Cook Islands a plausible regional claim to the subject matter.
At one kilogram of .999 silver, this is a bullion-adjacent collector piece rather than anything that ever approached circulation. KM#1059 is one of several large-format Cook Islands issues from this period produced by the B.H. Mayer mint in Germany.
