Spectacularly Detailed Imagery
Obverse: An effigy of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is located on the obverse. Surrounding inscriptions include “ELIZABETH II,” “2023,” “COOK ISLANDS,” “1 DOLLAR,” “2 OZ” and “AG 999.” The initials “IRB” positioned beneath the likeness of the late monarch credit acclaimed British sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley for the image.
Reverse: On the reverse, Hel is portrayed in her most common form, as a female figure that is half alive and half an emaciated skeleton, reaching forward as if to welcome her next resident. In the background, the goddess’ underworld realm is depicted as a lifeless cavern that is littered with a collection of tortured souls. An intricate Celtic knot border encircles the partially gilded image, with the inscription “NORSE GODS” curving above, and “HEL” below.
