The acclaimed Topography Series continues with its 2025 release - Cook Islands 2025 Topography Series - Yellowstone 99.99% Coloured Proof Silver Coin 5oz, dedicated to the breathtaking Yellowstone National Park, the world’s very first national park, established in 1872. Situated primarily in Wyoming, USA, Yellowstone spans nearly 9,000 km², making it larger than islands such as Corsica or Cyprus. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is famed for its geothermal wonders, geyser basins, hot springs, and waterfalls, as well as its iconic wildlife, including bison, wolves, and grizzly bears. At its heart lies a massive super volcano, whose geothermal activity has shaped the park’s dramatic and ever-changing landscape.
Using advanced Smartminting® technology, the reverse presents Yellowstone’s rugged terrain in ultra-deep relief with striking realism. The coin faithfully captures the park’s geography in rich detail, with brilliant coloured highlights that bring its geological textures to life. The shimmering blue of Yellowstone Lake stands out vividly, contrasting against the textured gold-brown elevations of the surrounding plateaus, valleys, and mountain ranges. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, the King’s name “CHARLES III”, along with the country of issue and face value. These elements are surrounded by elegant contour-line topography patterns, symbolising the series’ geographic theme.
Struck from 5oz of 99.99% fine silver in proof quality, this extraordinary coin is housed in a thematic display frame depicting Yellowstone’s dramatic landscapes. With its limited worldwide mintage of only 777 pieces, it is a collector’s masterpiece that unites artistry, technology, and the natural majesty of one of Earth’s greatest treasures.
