Cook Islands – 2026 – 100 Dollars – Yellowstone Topography KILO silver edition

Description

The success story of this series continues. The latest edition takes us to Yellowstone National Park. It is the oldest national park in the world and was founded in the USA in 1872. It is mainly located in the state of Wyoming. With an area of around 9000 km², it is larger than Corsica or Cyprus and is known for its impressive nature that includes geysers, hot springs, waterfalls and a diverse animal world with bison, wolves and grizzly bears. The park is located on a huge super volcano, whose geothermal activity shapes the landscape. As a Unesco World Heritage Site, Yellowstone plays an important role in nature conservation and attracts millions of visitors every year.

As with its predecessors and with the help of the smartminting® technique, this exceptional coin shows a faithful detail of the park in ultra-deep relief. The impressive coloration depicts the rough and natural geology very realistically and brings Yellowstone Lake to life.

The mintage of this premium edition in 1 kg silver is limited to 77 pieces worldwide.
