Coin object is created using the 'new' keyword and its reference is assigned to coin1. Then, coin1 reference is assigned to coin2. Therefore, coin1 and coin2 refer to the same object, contain the same memory location, and are object references. However, they both refer to the same set of instance variables because they refer to the same object. Thus, the statement that is not correct is D, as they do not have their own set of instance variables.
