Unknown Auckland Psilocybe Species ID Please

Hi guys,
Can someone help me, I suspect Copelandia Cyanescens or Psilocybe Makarorae but I am not sure. I generally only come across copious amounts of Subs growing on wood chips/bark mulch and have not encountered these before. They produced a stronger trip and we were at the general consensus they provided a more visual trip.
Apologies in advance I have not filled out all of the required details below, I will come after work and complete the ID requirements. I just wanted to get these up. I understand no one can give an official ID before I fulfill the rest of the spec. But am just too excited about my recent find find 


Habitat: Dark, mostly black wood chips. Nestled between tussock grass. Supermarket car park gardens 
Gills: Grey/turning bluish
Stem: White, thick on the larger specimens, delicate on the smaller, younger ones. Evident bluing veins and dark blue bruising.
Cap: Very conical in shape with most specimens having almost a perfect "nipple" at the top. The younger, fresher specimen had a darker, olive-brown appearance. But most of the medium sized to larger ones were a greyish/light tan/beige. Although some were almost silver in appearance with evident bluing. Very small to largest specimen being no more than 2cm diameter. But very convex, bell-like curving around in on themselves until the edge meets the underside/gills begin (if that makes sense).
Spore print color: Very important!
Bruising: Pronounced blue. Darker and very pronounced on the stems, lighter on the caps. Sometimes almost fluorescent, vibrant blue in appearance.
