| Obverse description | The obverse features a high-relief engraved winter forest landscape spanning the entire star-shaped field, depicting snow-laden coniferous trees rendered in fine detail against a frosted silk-finish background. Small five-pointed stars are scattered across the upper field, evoking a nocturnal winter sky. At centre, a raised circular medallion bears the right-facing uncrowned effigy of King Charles III, surrounded by the circumscribed legend reading '5 DOLLARS · CHARLES III · 2025 · COOK ISLANDS ·' in Latin script. A suspension hole is pierced through the upper point of the star, facilitating use as a decorative ornament. The rhodium plating imparts a lustrous silver-grey tone to the entire composition. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a continuous high-relief engraving of a dense winter forest scene, with finely detailed snow-covered evergreen trees filling the entire star-shaped field in an immersive panoramic composition. Three inlaid clear crystals are set into the field, arranged in a loose triangular formation across the upper portion of the star, simulating glistening snowflakes or dewdrops among the frosted boughs. The silk-finish background contrasts with the deeply engraved tree textures, creating a pronounced sense of depth and atmosphere. No legends or inscriptions appear on this face. A suspension hole is pierced through the apex point of the star, mirroring the obverse. |
