Aloha and welcome to Kauai, the garden island of Hawaii and the 2nd issue in the Cook Islands Topography series. The volcanic island is not only famous for its lush vegetation and impressive variety of plants, but also for its spectacular red rocks and cliffs, formed by millions of years of erosion and volcanic activity.
Pictured is an original section of one of the oldest Hawaiian islands. As with its predecessor, the Grand Canyon, the ultra deep relief is created thanks to smartminting® technology. But it is the realistic coloring that makes this coin a numismatic wonder of nature.
