COOK ISLANDS




The Cook Island are a group of 14 islands which are a political dependency of New Zealand. their capital is Avarua . Named after Captain Cook, who was the first European to spot them, they became a British protectorate in 1888. by the new century, administrative control was transferred to New Zealand and in 1965 the local residence chose to self govern with free association with New Zealand.

You have to admit that the artwork on this note is superb and the legend depicted on the reverse of Ina and the Shark is brilliant.
