| Aanvullende informatie |
Robert Fulton's 1807 voyage up the Hudson aboard the Clermont is routinely cited as the birth of commercial steam navigation, though Fulton himself was less inventor than financier and promoter — the engine was imported from Boulton & Watt in Birmingham. Cook Islands issued a considerable number of silver commemoratives in the early 1990s through licensing arrangements that had little connection to the subjects honored, most targeting collector markets rather than circulation.
KM#194 belongs to a broader Cook Islands series commemorating figures in transportation history.
