The Upper Deck trademark logo appears in the lower center field, flanked by the individual coin serial number within an oval cartouche. The player's name ERIK KARLSSON arcs prominently along the upper left in raised lettering, with the purity and weight designation inscribed below. |

| Additional information |
Erik Karlsson won the Norris Trophy as the NHL's best defenseman in both 2012 and 2015 while playing for the Ottawa Senators — a franchise not historically associated with marquee collectible issues. Cook Islands has issued a wide range of licensed athlete coins through the New Zealand Mint, and this series falls within that commercial program. The .9999 fine silver specification places it above the more common .999 standard, a detail that matters to both bullion buyers and registry collectors.
