Cook Islands 5 dollars Soviet Cartoons Prodigal Parrot Return Cat Ag coin 2012

The Cook Islands 5 Dollars 2012 silver coin from the “Soviet Cartoons” series is dedicated to the beloved animated film “The Return of the Prodigal Parrot.” This cheerful issue captures the iconic scene with the charismatic red-striped cat and the mischievous parrot, a story that became a true classic of Soviet animation.

The reverse presents a bright colored composition: a smiling orange cat with black stripes, dressed in blue trousers with suspenders, stands on a snowy surface with paws spread wide. Around him are two black crows and the small parrot, emphasizing the lively atmosphere of the scene. Snowflakes, textured winter ground, and dynamic relief details fill the background. Along the upper rim runs the inscription “Возвращение блудного попугая,” while below appears the phrase “А нас и здесь неплохо кормят.” A copyright mark is placed near the lower left. The frosted relief contrasts beautifully with the mirror-like Proof field.

The obverse features the right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II with the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “5 DOLLARS,” “COOK ISLANDS,” and the year 2012, along with the initials “IRB.” Struck in fine silver in Proof quality, this coin is a nostalgic collectible for fans of animation art and world numismatics — a vivid and joyful addition to any collection.
