Cook Islands 20 dollars Carlo Maratta Art Holy Night PF69 NGC silver coin 2010

The Cook Islands 20 Dollars 2010 silver coin from the “Masterpieces of Art” series is dedicated to Carlo Maratta and his celebrated painting Holy Night. This refined numismatic issue unites Baroque religious art with modern minting excellence, honoring one of the leading Italian painters of the 17th century.

The reverse features a beautifully colored reproduction of Holy Night: the Virgin Mary tenderly illuminated by a warm divine light, gently gazing at the Christ Child resting in her arms, while a second figure emerges from the shadowed background. The intimate night scene is framed by architectural elements resembling arched windows and a classical façade. Decorative vertical columns flank the painting, and the lower rim bears the inscription “CARLO MARATTA,” while the year “2010” appears within the detailed architectural design.

The obverse displays the right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II with the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “COOK ISLANDS,” and “20 DOLLARS.” Struck in fine silver with colored application, this proof coin is certified PF69 Ultra Cameo by NGC, highlighting its sharp contrast and exceptional surfaces. A meaningful acquisition for collectors of sacred art and classic European masterpieces.
