| Obverse description | The obverse features a central raised disk bearing the diademed effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, engraved by IRB (Ian Rank-Broadley), surrounded by the legend ELIZABETH II to the left, 5 DOLLARS at top, and COOK ISLANDS to the right, with the date 2022 below the portrait. Extending beyond the central disk into the broader coin field is a high-relief sculptural composition depicting a family of bears in a naturalistic woodland setting, with an adult bear prominently rendered to the right and a smaller cub to its side, creating a striking multi-plane design that integrates the royal portrait with the wildlife tableau. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a full-color photographic-style depiction of a Grey Fox (Urocyon cinereoargenteus) standing alert in a natural landscape, centrally positioned within a circular color insert. Above the fox, a five-pointed star bearing the American flag in color is flanked by a row of small stars, with a colored banner inscribed DELAWARE arching beneath the star. The legend AMERICAN STATE ANIMALS curves along the upper periphery of the coin in incuse lettering, while a colored banner at the base of the central insert reads GREY FOX. The surrounding silver field features matte-finished low-relief engraving of a desert landscape with cacti and rocky terrain. |
