The coin was issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the aviation pioneer for whom it is named. 999 fine silver, this coin weighs 3 oz.
An unusual weight that could draw collectors who appreciate variety. It is part of a limited mintage of just 499 pieces. Like other coins issued by the Cook Islands, this piece bears Ian Rank-Broadley's right-side effigy of Queen Elizabeth II.
Unlike other coins from the country, though, this one has her image and the inscriptions encircling it at the top. Below, the Graf Zeppelin airship, which was built in Zeppelin's honor, flies over the arctic.
The reverse of the coin features a large portrait of Graf Zeppelin with an airship next to it. A facsimile of his signature is superimposed over part of his portrait near the rim.
