Sorry, folks. I'm having trouble coming up with an interesting idea.  If anyone else has an idea, feel free to take over!

How about the longest span between release dates of two coins with the same design? That is, to be clear, there were no coins with that design minted between the two years. Biggest gap wins. I will go ahead and show one obvious recent news-maker as an example... which means you cannot use it (but the other is up for grabs).  1921 Morgan dollar 2021 Morgan dollar Privy O

Looks like you stumped us on this one Jbuck. I can think of some that had a similar reverse, but the obverse is different, due to new monarch.

Do these Morgans really count, because the 1921 was a circulating coin, the 2021 is merely a commem with some $20 worth of silver in it, so it can't circulate at $1. One that springs to mind for me is the Swedish Norwegian 5 ore coin, issued only a few dates in the 1870s and then bizarrely again in 1896. Of course in 1905 Norway became independent and they had their own coins - but using the standard 100 ore = 1 (Krone, Krona, Kroner) coinage you find in Sweden, Denmark and Norway.  1896 5 ore, the first issue of it since 1878!!!   1878 5 ore, that is a gap of 18 years for a low value circulating coin with exactly the same design except for the date.
