[QUOTE="Clinker, post: 1553025, member: 6229"][SIZE=2]DATELINE: 1998 Three Commonwealth Nations made a unilateral agreement to strike a special proof coins. The nations are Cook Islands, Fiji and Western Samoa. The coins would bear Queen Elizabeth II's portrait on the left side of the obverse of each coin, facing right, with the 1998 date at the top of the right side, the words, "Queen Elizabeth II" under the date and the Country's name beneath that. The reverses of the three coins depict landmarks and/or special monuments plus the denomination. Each coin is in the shape of one-third of a circle. If a coin collector purchased all three coins, he or she could place the three coins together, end to end, completing a circle.
