| Additional information |
Struck to mark the May 2018 wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, this is among the smallest denominated gold issues Cook Islands produced in the commemorative series — 0.311 g places it firmly in the fractional micro-gold category that became commercially fashionable among Pacific island issuers in the 2010s as a low entry-point collectible rather than a circulating instrument. Cook Islands has no meaningful domestic gold market; these pieces are struck entirely for the international collector trade under licensing arrangements.
