2017 Cook Islands 5 Gram Silver Banknote (London Skyline Dollar)

London’s skyline makes a grand appearance on the brand-new series of silver banknotes issued by CIT (Coin Invest Trust), on behalf of the Cook Islands. These 2017 5 g Cook Islands London Skyline Silver Dollar Banknotes honor one of the most magnificent cities in the world with a breathtaking design. A few cities are known for their incredible skylines. It is part of the first glimpse of that city, and holds a special place in the heart of both its residents and visitors. CIT (Coin Invest Trust) and Mayer Mint, in partnership with the nation of Cook Islands, have come together to celebrate various cities and their skylines with a truly unique series of products – the Skyline Dollars Silver Banknotes. Each of these banknotes is crafted using 5 grams of 0.999 pure silver. The silver is flattened down to thinner than a sheet of paper, resulting in a thickness of just 0.045 mm. Moreover, they also carry $1 (NZD) face values, which are guaranteed by the Government of Cook Islands. The obverse sides of these products bear the familiar Ian Rank-Broadley rendition of Queen Elizabeth II’s effigy. On the other hand, the artist captures the beauty of the London skyline successfully on the note’s reverse – prominently highlighting perhaps its most famous landmark, Big Ben. These 2017 5g Cook Islands London Skyline Silver Banknotes are essential purchases for those wanting to complete the Skyline Dollars set of products or simply add them to pre-existing precious metals collections. However, their uniqueness and limited mintage of 5,000 does almost guarantee dwindling supplies soon!
