Cook Islands 5 Dollars 2011 – Soviet Cartoons Series – Umka Polar Bear – Colored Silver Coin

This charming 5 dollars silver coin issued by the Cook Islands in 2011 is dedicated to the beloved Soviet animated classic “Umka.” The touching story of a curious polar bear cub and his friendship with a northern boy has become a symbol of childhood warmth and Arctic wonder.

The reverse features a beautifully composed Arctic scene. A large white polar bear sits in profile, looking toward the horizon, while in the foreground a small colored bear cub, Umka, wears a dark blue winter hat and scarf. Behind them rises a stylized iceberg under a dark polar sky with a bright red sun disk. To the right, a sailing boat with triangular sails moves across the icy sea, and delicate relief details depict snow and textured ice. The inscription “Умка” appears above, while fine decorative elements and the studio mark are placed along the edge.

The obverse shows the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II with the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “5 DOLLARS,” “COOK ISLANDS,” and the year 2011. Struck in fine silver in Proof quality with selective color printing, this coin combines mirror fields and frosted relief. A heartwarming collectible for fans of classic animation, Arctic wildlife, and nostalgic themes.
