Cook Islands 5 dollars Pechersk All Saints Church Architecture silver coin 2008

The Cook Islands 5 Dollars 2008 silver coin is dedicated to the Pechersk All Saints Church (Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra), one of the most remarkable architectural and spiritual landmarks of Kyiv. This issue celebrates sacred architecture and cultural heritage, combining refined proof minting with selective color elements that highlight the beauty of the historic cathedral.

The reverse features a detailed panoramic view of the All Saints Church with its distinctive façade and three gilded domes rising above the entrance. The central dome and two smaller domes are accented in gold tones, contrasting with the finely engraved silver surroundings. A cobblestone path leads toward the arched gateway, framed by decorative wrought-iron fences, lantern posts, trees, and adjacent monastery buildings. Small clouds float above the cathedral, enhancing the depth of the scene. The inscription “Києво-Печерська Лавра” runs along the upper rim, while “Церква Всіх Святих” and the date “2008” appear below. The obverse bears the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II with the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “COOK ISLANDS,” and “5 DOLLARS,” struck in brilliant proof finish.

Minted in fine silver, this architectural commemorative coin is a refined tribute to Orthodox heritage and historic monuments. A distinguished addition for collectors of religious and world silver issues.
