正面描述 Right-facing draped bust of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing the George IV State Diadem, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The portrait, characteristic of the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy used by the Pobjoy Mint, captures fine detail in the hair and drapery. The legend BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS arcs along the left periphery, while QUEEN ELIZABETH II curves along the right, with the date 2008 positioned at the lower right. The coin features a wide, flat rim framing the design.

附加信息

Pobjoy struck this piece for the Cook Islands to mark the 420th anniversary of the Spanish Armada's defeat — a campaign Philip II had financed partly by melting Spanish-American silver into coin. The irony of commemorating that event in silver is not lost on serious collectors.

The 1588 engagement scattered surviving Armada vessels around the British Isles; more than two dozen wrecked off Ireland alone, several of which were excavated in the 20th century and yielded Spanish reales still recoverable after nearly four centuries submerged.
