Afternoon everyone……
You all know about my love of ships on coins by now. It’s no secret after this many years of posting.
So today I’m going to share another beautiful ship coin. This is a 2016 Cooks Island coin, it’s two ounces and as typical of me. I got this one graded as a PR70 of course by PCGS.

I came in a display box in a regular air-tire. I sent it to be graded.
