History
Thanks to an unstable foundation, the free-standing bell tower of the Pisa Cathedral was leaning even as it was first completed in 1372, and remained famous for that signature flaw ever since. Restored and propped up multiple times over the centuries and known to the modern world as one of the most photographed structures of all time, the Leaning Tower of Pisa is as iconic as buildings get.
Obverse
What’s truly unusual about this coin is that both the obverse and reverse sides carry authentically detailed and intricate representations of the Leaning Tower standing out vividly from the surface. On the obverse, a stylized interpretation of a frontal view of the Pisa Cathedral forms a backdrop, with the inscriptions “Leaning Tower of Pisa,” “1372 – 2022” and “650 Years.”
Reverse
The reverse side’s Leaning Tower is accompanied by a profile image of the Pisa Cathedral in the background, along with a miniaturized version of the profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II that normally dominates the reverse of Commonwealth coins. It bears the inscriptions “Queen Elizabeth II,” “Cook Islands” and “10 Dollars.”
