Cook Islands 2018 Seven Summits Aconcagua 5 Oz Silver Coin PCGS MS 70

Description

The coin series Seven Summits is dedicated to the highest and most popular mountains of the world, which are unofficially called the Seven Summits.
With 6962 meters altitude (22’841 feet) the Aconcagua is one of the less well known seven summits but it certainly is one of the most spectacular ones. The highest mountain in South America is located in Mendoza, Argentina.
The third issue of the extraordinary coin series features the Aconcagua from an unusual bird's-eye perspective in solid 5 ounces of fine silver. Through an unbelievably detailed topographical smartminting relief and a selective color application, the different rock strata in the Andes are clearly defined.
The snow and ice capped summit on this fantastic silver coin is surrounded by green and red hues of limestone, carbonates, ash deposits and volcanic rocks. Mountaineer adventures can be vividly imagined while looking at this numismatic artwork - a must-have for every mountaineer and collector of spectacular coins.
