I have philippine 1 peso 1909 and 1910 silver coin, why they has different volcano design in obverse side one is plain soft volcano in 1910 and the other has curve on the middle of the volcano in 1909.

The volcano in 1909 coin hasnt erupted which explains for the curve terrain while in the 1910 version, the volcano erupted and tons of lava flow has made the volcano's cone perfect. I hope you are satisfied with my explanation. I am a geologist thanks.
