<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mr. Numismatist, post: 26789995, member: 142588&quot;]Hello everyone,</p><p><br /></p><p>I think I just discovered two undocumented design variations of the Cook Islands $2 Double Eagle 1/2 oz. Silver Coins (let me know if I&#039;m not the first to notice).</p><p><br /></p><p>This issue (<a href="https://en.numista.com/175952" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/175952" rel="nofollow">https://en.numista.com/175952</a>) was made 2019-2021. Both varieties can be seen on the 2020 &amp; 2021 issues, but for 2019 I have only been able to find one variety which I call &quot;Type 1&quot;. Type 2 for both 2020 and 2021 is definitely the scarcer variety.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the obverse, the most noticeable differences are:</p><ul> <li> the font types (especially &quot;E&quot;),</li> <li> the denticles</li> <li> the wood grain of the bell&#039;s headstock</li> <li> the Queen&#039;s portrait.</li> </ul><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1710024[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>On the reverse, the most notable design variations are:</p><ul> <li>the font types</li> <li>the denticles<br /> </li> <li>the eagles&#039; feathers</li> <li>the relation of the lettering and the sun&#039;s rays</li> </ul><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1710023[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
