| Aversbeschreibung | The obverse features a right-facing diademed and draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after Ian Rank-Broadley, set within a circular incuse field in the lower centre of the coin. Surrounding the portrait, the legend reads 'ELIZABETH II COOK ISLANDS' in raised Latin lettering. Above, occupying the upper portion of the field, is a raised relief map of northern Europe and the Baltic Sea region, evoking the historical extent of the Hanseatic League's trading network. To the left of the map, a finely detailed relief of a medieval Hanseatic cog — a characteristic single-masted merchant sailing vessel — is depicted. The denomination '5 DOLLARS' appears below the portrait in the lower field, with the series title 'HANSEATIC LEAGUE' arching prominently along the upper rim. |

| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse presents a richly detailed cityscape composition commemorating Kaliningrad, the former Teutonic city of Königsberg. To the left stands a full-length figure of a medieval Teutonic knight rendered in selective copper-coloured relief, clad in armour and robes, wearing a crown and holding a sceptre, evoking the city's Teutonic Order heritage. The centre of the field displays the city's heraldic coat of arms — a shield bearing a Hanseatic cog — above the dual inscriptions 'KALININGRAD' and 'KÖNIGSBERG'. To the right, the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour of Kaliningrad is depicted in high relief against a panoramic skyline of the city's historic towers and spires. The date '2010' appears in the lower exergue, and the legend 'THE TEUTONIC CITY' arches along the upper rim. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Kaliningrad occupies a geopolitical anomaly that few commemorative coin programs bother to address: a Russian federal subject physically detached from Russia, wedged between Poland and Lithuania on the Baltic coast. The territory was seized from Germany in 1945, its German population expelled, and renamed from Königsberg — home city of Immanuel Kant — in 1946 after a Soviet official who died that same year. Cook Islands issued a series of city-themed coins around this period, and Kaliningrad's inclusion reflects the series' interest in geopolitically unusual subjects rather than merely famous ones.
