Well...it could've been worse, such as applying the reverse concept to the portrait.

Yeah, I must agree with everyone: An odd concept for a commemorative, but it could have been a lot worse. Frankly, I'm surprised that there wasn't a bust of Hef on the reverse.

I can see the 50th anniversary of Playboy. But... is the queen the Cook Islands' idea of a Playmate of the Month?

I've seen better...

Those Cook Islands even issue pieces such as this "Leaders of the Free World" thing:

Oh, and if anybody wants the full "Playboy 50" set, consisting on the coin and twelve colorized medals ...
