| Aanvullende informatie |
The 18-foot skiff is an Australian sailing class with roots in the late 19th century, originally raced as working boats before evolving into one of the most technically demanding and dangerous amateur racing classes in the world. By the time this coin was struck, the Sydney Flying Squadron — which governs the class — had been running competitive skiff racing on Sydney Harbour for over a century.
Cook Islands became a prolific issuer of large-format silver commemoratives through the 1990s under licensing arrangements that had little to do with domestic circulation. This piece never saw the islands.
