The rearing horse and armored rider occupy the central field in high relief. The inscription SAINT GEORGE arcs along the upper right facets, while the notation 23rd of April appears in the left field. Selected elements including the dragon and the saint's halo are highlighted with selective gold plating. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cook Islands has operated an aggressive commemorative minting program since the 1970s, largely through arrangements with foreign minting houses targeting collector markets rather than circulation. This piece is part of that output — a bullion-adjacent silver issue tied to the enduring Saint George iconography that has anchored English and British coinage since Edward III's gold noble of the 14th century.
Cook Islands issues of this type carry legal tender status under New Zealand monetary arrangements, though none were ever intended to pass at face value.
