| Obverse description | The diademed effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II facing right, after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, positioned in the upper central field above an elaborate three-dimensional spiral vortex motif that dominates the entire face of the coin. The surface is struck with concentric swirling ridges that create a dramatic spinning optical illusion, converging toward a raised central sphere at the heart of the composition. The legend ELIZABETH II is inscribed along the left periphery, with the date 20 23 split across the upper field flanking the portrait, and the inscriptions COOK ISLANDS and 5 DOLLARS arranged along the right and lower periphery respectively. The coin is finished in antiqued silver, enhancing the deep relief and visual dynamism of the design. |
