Cook Islands 5 Dollars 2009 – International Year of Astronomy, Mars, Silver Proof Colored Coin. This impressive commemorative issue celebrates the International Year of Astronomy 2009 and is dedicated to Mars, the fourth planet of the Solar System. The reverse features a dramatic colored image of Mars with its characteristic dark plains and lighter surface areas set against a deep mirrored background. In front of the planet stands a classical representation of Mars, the Roman god of war, depicted as a muscular warrior wearing a crested helmet, holding a spear and shield. The astronomical symbol of Mars (♂) appears to the right, while the inscriptions “INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF ASTRONOMY 2009” and “MARS” are placed along the rim, separated by stars and curved lines.
The obverse presents the right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II with the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “COOK ISLANDS,” “5 DOLLARS,” and the date 2009. Struck in silver with selective color and a refined Proof finish, this coin unites astronomy, mythology, and planetary science in one elegant design. A compelling collectible for space enthusiasts and lovers of celestial themes.
