Elements include a large container ship, stock exchange, gold bars and silver coins, crypto and currency trading and more. The bulls and bears fight in the middle. The obverse also has the Coat of Arms with Queen Elizabeth II and the inscriptions: “COOK ISLANDS” (the issuing country), “2022” (the year of issue) and “10 DOLLARS” (the face value).
Trade dates back centuries but it wasn’t until the 16-17th century that worldwide trade picked up. It was in the 16th century that European mariner adventures mapped sea routes around the world. Traders would bring goods overseas and bring back other goods to trade back home. The coin depicts such a harbor scene in Europe. At the same time the first stock exchanges emerged in Antwerpen and Amsterdam. All this evolved over the next four centuries into what trade is today.Today trade is faster, bigger, and interesting opportunities are coming with crypto and metaverses. Sailing ships turned into super container freighters. Stock exchanges are connected to super-fast internet connections to trade faster. Gold and silver are a must have asset against inflation. Last but not least crypto emerged a decade ago. With Bitcoin leading, and many others following. Some just for fun, but many have great use cases like decentralized social media tokens as SocialBlox.io $SBLX and others. Mass adoption is now and trade and economics will change once again.
