Belarus 1 kopeck 2009, km561, flat star [Risolto]

These are images of my 2009 1 Kopeck. Image 1 is the thick rays, convex star. Image 2 is the narrow rays, but it also has a convex star and not a flat star. Does anyone else know of this discrepancy?

Image 2

Both your coins have wide sun rays, no 2 has just a high resolution on the inside of the wide rays? That might be the variety, not the star.

Here the wide rays without “finer” rays!

Agree.

Thank you for the help. I see now, on my image 1 the rays are almost nonexistent. 

Here is the new documentation

Any comments about when the “new” variant started and ended?

I'm confused about the coat of arms dates. Are there just two 1995 and 2021?  As far as start and end I have no clue with all coins dated 2009. Other than that looks good to replace the existing graphic.

This is now my base for researching the years of modifications, maybe I'll get wiser?

If not wiser at least more knowledgeable

The globes seem to be different, but I cannot see that on the coins. The rays on all three are fine, which is definitely not the case on the coins. The star on the 2020 version is definitely larger, so that would be this coin

 So now if I use the existing low quality documentation in Numista

I would deduct that this would be correct

What do you think?

Honestly, I think trying to tie them into the Coat of Arms confuses the issue (at least for me) as (as you said) it's hard to see on the coin.  I think the three varieties are quite distinct without knowing anything about the Coat of Arms.  With that said, I'm still confused about the dates. Currently on the coin page are these comments:

Narrow rays from the sun, flat star, new coat of arms (2021); Released in 2022

Thick rays from the sun, convex star, old coat of arms (1995); Released in 2016

Your graphic implies the thick rays are like the CoA of 2012-2019, the narrow rays are like the CoA of 2020 and the “new” variant wide and fine rays are like the CoA of 2005-2011. The picture you posted of the CoA's shows CoA's of 1995, 2012 and 2020. Very confusing. The graphic and year line comments have to match.

Add to all that the pictures currently on the page.

Thick rays from the sun, convex star, old coat of arms (1995)

But looking closer and there are also fine rays:

So it seems the “new” variant from this post is actually the existing variant and the real “new” variant (the one currently not on the coin page) is the Wide, plain sun rays one.

Maybe limit the graphic to what we know for sure and leave out the questions?

Or…there are only two variants and all Wide sun rays have fine sun rays, just that sometimes depending on the strike the fine ones are hard to see. Here's the main coin picture on the page:

Wide rays but also faint fine rays:

It's easier without trying to give any dates of the coats of arms…. honestly I can't see any stripes at all in the plain rays! So I think we reall hav 3 varieties.

I'll make the CR and try to adjust the year lines to the graphic, if everybody agrees?

I agree.

I agree, thank you both for the help on this.
