| 背面描述 | Highly detailed depiction of the Virgin of Kazan icon (Kazanskaya), rendered in the traditional Russian Orthodox iconographic style. The Virgin Mary is shown in a three-quarter frontal pose, her face and that of the Christ Child highlighted with auburn-red enamel color applied to the faces, evoking the warmth of the original icon. The composition is framed by an elaborate embossed riza (oklad) featuring floral and foliate ornamental motifs, with a radiant halo arching above the Virgin. The Cyrillic inscription КАЗАНСКАЯ appears on the left margin of the inner frame, and the date 2009 is inscribed in the lower right corner of the field. |

The Virgin of Kazan icon holds one of the stranger geopolitical histories of any religious object — it disappeared from Kazan in 1904, resurfaced in the United States via a series of private sales, was purchased by the Catholic Church in 1970, and finally transferred to the Russian Orthodox Patriarchate by Pope John Paul II in 2004, five years before this coin was issued. Cook Islands has issued commemoratives under its own authority since 1972, using the series largely as a vehicle for thematic collector pieces with no domestic circulation intent.
