5 Dollars - Elizabeth II Rabbit

Issued as part of the Chinese Lunar Calendar series, this coin corresponds to the Year of the Rabbit, which ran from February 3, 2011 through January 22, 2012. Cook Islands has produced collector-oriented silver issues under licensing arrangements for decades, with distribution handled largely through European and Asian wholesale numismatic channels rather than any domestic circulation infrastructure — the islands' own population is under 20,000.
