Bark Gorch Fock
This precision gold coin, issued by the Cook Islands State in 2008 and minted in the purest 99.9% gold, is dedicated to the sailing ship Gorch Fock.
The reverse of the coin shows the starboard side of the Gorch Fock at sea along with the year of issue "2008" and the name "GORCH FOCK". The Gorch Fock is a German three-masted ship, the first of a series of training school sailing ships built for the German Reich Navy in 1933. After World War II she was seized as war reparations by the Soviet Union and re-christened Tovarish. Subsequently, a new school ship, Gorch Fock (1958), was built in Germany and is still in active service. The original ship sailed under the Ukrainian flag, but in 1990 the ship was abandoned in a British port due to lack of funds necessary to repair it. Eventually sponsorship was obtained and the ship was transported to its original home port of Stralsund in Germany. Here the ship was rechristened Gorch Fock on 29 November 2003. She is now housed in a maritime museum, and although she has undergone extensive refurbishment, she is not technically seaworthy.
The obverse shows a traditional portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian-Rank Broadley with the inscriptions "ELIZABETH II", "COOK ISLANDS", "10 DOLLARS" and the initials of the designer "IRB".
The coin comes in a plastic capsule in a limited edition of only 15,000 pieces worldwide!
