| 表面の説明 | The obverse features a central medallion-style inset bearing the fourth effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicting the monarch in right-facing profile with a tiara and elaborately coiffed hair. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the left, with 5 DOLLARS and COOK ISLANDS along the right, and the date 2022 below the portrait; the engraver's initials IRB appear beneath the bust. Surrounding the central portrait, the broader coin field is struck in high relief with a naturalistic forest scene depicting two bears — a large adult and a smaller juvenile — amid stylized woodland vegetation and tree trunks, executed in a detailed antique-finish style. |

| 裏面の説明 | The reverse presents a full-colour photographic-style depiction of a grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) seated upright on a rocky surface, holding food in its forepaws, set within a circular colored central field. A banner in blue and white bearing the inscription NORTH CAROLINA arcs above the squirrel, while a second blue banner inscribed GREY SQUIRREL appears below. A small rendition of the American flag in colour is positioned at the upper portion of the central field. The surrounding silver field is engraved in high relief with a rugged North American landscape scene. The arc legend AMERICAN STATE ANIMALS frames the design along the upper rim, rendered in raised block capitals. |

Cook Islands has issued wildlife-themed silver rounds under its legal tender framework for decades, largely targeting the collector and bullion markets rather than any domestic circulation — the islands' actual day-to-day currency is the New Zealand dollar. This piece belongs to a long-running series strategy where the Cook Islands monetary authority licenses designs to international minting distributors, a model that has drawn periodic scrutiny from numismatic bodies over questions of issuing legitimacy.
The eastern grey squirrel, native to North America, was introduced to Britain in the 1870s and has since driven the native red squirrel to near-local extinction across most of England.
