Is this a Attalea butyracea or Attalea cohune?

This pod split open today, which is always amazing. I'm having trouble understanding the difference between the butyracea and cohune. The fruits seem a little different but to my eye not by a lot. What should I look for to figure out which of the two I have here?

Many thanks in advance.

    Not an expert but I don't think it's cohune.

    How old is that palm? I noticed you are in Hawaii so it’s probably only a couple years old!!
