Coin Invest Trust (CIT) is a private company based in Liechtenstein that specializes in the production of high-quality and innovative coins and medals. Founded in 1970, CIT has gained a reputation for its exceptional craftsmanship and unique approach to numismatics. The company collaborates with various countries, issuing authorities, and mints to create collectible coins with intricate designs and often limited mintages. The Cook Islands is one of those nations and the new Wave Silver Coin is the second release in the exciting Silverland Series!
Obverse
In the obverse design of the 2023 2 oz Proof Cook Islands Silver The Wave Coin, you will find a bust of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Here, the Queen is shown in right-profile relief in the popular 1998 design from Ian Rank-Broadley. Her Late Majesty’s effigy is set against a background field of wave lines. The identifying hallmarks are included on this side.
Reverse
For the reverse face of Proof Cook Islands Silver The Wave Coin, CIT features the image of a wave. This 3D design is struck in ultra-high relief and captures the ever-changing appearance, as well as the majestic beauty, of waves.
Packaging
As the 2nd release of the Silverland Series, the 2023 2 oz Silver The Wave Coin comes with a limited mintage of 1,777 coins, with each one packaged in a clear window display and a Certificate of Authenticity. Each coin in this release is produced using SmartMinting technology. All of the coins are proof specimens with frosted designs and mirrored fields.
SmartMinting and Waves
SmartMinting is a revolutionary coin-minting technology developed by Coin Invest Trust. This innovative technique allows for the creation of coins with unprecedented levels of relief, intricate details, and high-quality visuals. It enables the production of coins that were previously considered technically challenging or impossible to create using traditional minting methods.
Like the first release in this series, the new Silver Wave Coin captures the natural beauty of waves. While waves are beautiful, waves can also be incredibly powerful and destructive. Storm surges, tsunamis, and rogue waves are examples of how the immense energy of ocean waves can wreak havoc. Storm surges occur during severe storms and hurricanes when strong winds push water onto coastal areas, causing flooding and damage. Tsunamis, usually triggered by undersea earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides, can generate massive waves that travel across oceans with devastating force. Rogue waves, which are unexpectedly large and steep waves that appear in seemingly calm seas, can pose a significant threat to ships and offshore structures.
