| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a dramatic high-relief representation of the Viñales meteorite, a stony chondrite that fell in Pinar del Río Province, Cuba, in February 2019. A large meteorite fragment is depicted in striking three-dimensional relief at the centre, its regmaglypts and fusion crust faithfully reproduced with exceptional sculptural detail. Behind the main fragment, a stylised silhouette map of the meteorite's strewn field is rendered in lower relief across the field. The inscription 'VIÑALES METEORITE' arcs along the left border, while the geographic coordinates of the fall site, '22°37'17"N' and '83°44'57"W', appear in the upper right field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Viñales Valley in western Cuba was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999, recognized for its dramatic mogote karst formations and a tobacco-farming tradition largely unchanged since the 19th century. Cook Islands has built one of the more commercially aggressive bullion and collector programs among small Pacific jurisdictions, issuing silver pieces under licensing arrangements that have little connection to the territory itself — this is one of those issues.
