The truncated bust is draped and faces right in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The circular legend reads 'ELIZABETH II COOK ISLANDS' around the upper periphery, with the denomination '5 DOLLARS' inscribed below the effigy near the lower rim. |

Cook Islands has operated as a prolific licensing partner for novelty bullion issues since the early 2000s, and this piece falls squarely within that commercial program — the island nation's legal tender framework allows foreign entities to produce coins under its authority without any meaningful domestic circulation. The 2011 Terminator 2 series was issued under license from StudioCanal, which acquired the relevant rights following the complicated ownership history of the Carolco Pictures library after the studio's 1995 bankruptcy.
T2 itself was released in 1991, then the most expensive film ever made at roughly $102 million.
