That's actually a piece of coal that was retrieved from the Titanic wreck at the bottom of the ocean. Talk about detail to design!
Mintage is just 500 coins. And that's for worldwide distribution! A Mint box and COA is included with this 3 Oz hulk.
BTW, at the top of the page is a company logo, seen most prominently on flags aboard the Titanic. The logo is that of the White Star Lines. Coin is struck by the Mayer Mint in Germany. For the South Pacific island nation of the Cook Islands.
It is very common for a small country without a Mint of their own, to allow their legal tender to be struck at various world Mints including The Perth Mint, Pobjoy Mint, The Royal Mint, and with the Hollywood movie franchises, the New Zealand Mint. Thanks for taking a look. If you need additional pictures or have questions, please let me know.
