sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 02/04/2013 04:03 am Wireman09: This coin is known almost universally in Australia as the 'Doodle Dollar'. I am not sure that good 'ole Queen Bess the Second would have been all that happy, with her image depicted on the other side! James Berry, who designed a lot of early decimal New Zealand, also designed this one as well as other reverses of the Cook Islands. See "JB" behind the god's feet. This coin would not have been offensive at all in the Cook Islands. That image is one of their gods. Report this Post to the Staff
wireman09 Pillar of the Community Canada 972 Posts	Posted 02/04/2013 05:02 am @sel-691...Thanks for the info about the dollar. I never knew anything about the dollar. A friend of mine went on a vacation to the Cook Islands back in the late 1970's and he brought it back and gave it to me. He knew I was a avid coin collector and he thought I would get a kick out of it. I have had it for over 30 years. Don't want to insult anyone's god, but I have always thought it was a ugly coin. Don't know if that's a fish under his belly but for the last 30 years that not what I thought it was. Thought I better post a pic of the obverse also so the moderators would see it was a real coin.
