| 正面描述 | Right-facing draped bust of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem, a pearl drop earring, and a pearl necklace, as sculpted by Raphael David Maklouf; the engraver's initials 'RDM' appear below the truncation. The circumferential legend reads 'ELIZABETH II • COOK ISLANDS' along the upper arc, while the lower arc bears the inscriptions '5oz 999 SILVER • 2017 • FIVE DOLLARS •', all within a raised inner border set against a brushed field with antiqued finish. |

| 背面描述 | A richly detailed and lushly illustrated scene depicting all thirteen major deities of the Greek pantheon — Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hermes, Hestia, and Hades — each rendered with attributes emblematic of their divine roles and arranged in a composite tableau across the coin's field. The design showcases exceptional high-relief engraving with deep antiqued contrast, giving the composition a dramatic sculptural quality befitting its subject matter. The legend 'GODS OF OLYMPUS' appears in the field, accompanied by the designer's initials 'JM'. |

The "Gods of Olympus" series was part of a broader wave of large-format colorized silver issues that flooded the collector market through Pacific Island issuing authorities in the 2010s — Cook Islands among the most prolific. These coins are legal tender in name only; Cook Islands has no mint of its own and contracts production entirely through private minting houses, with the New Zealand government handling actual monetary affairs under a 1901 arrangement that has never been formally revised.
The five-ounce format was chosen to maximize surface area for applied color and relief work, not for any monetary rationale.
