Why does a custom MKMapView annotation image disappear on touch?

I am annotating my map and setting an image just fine, but when I tap the annotation on the MapView, the image goes from my custom image back to the red pin. Why is this?

- (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)newMapView viewForAnnotation:(id )newAnnotation {
    MKPinAnnotationView *annotation = [[MKPinAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:newAnnotation reuseIdentifier:@"currentloc"];
    if (annotation == nil) {
        annotation = [[MKAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:newAnnotation reuseIdentifier:@"currentloc"];
    }

    annotation.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"anno.png"];
    annotation.canShowCallout = YES;
    annotation.rightCalloutAccessoryView = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeDetailDisclosure];
    UIImageView *imgView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"bus_stop_30x30.png"]];
    annotation.leftCalloutAccessoryView = imgView;

    return annotation;
}

My code looks identical to some sample code that does not produce this problem.

Answering my own question here, just in case others have the same issue. Notice that I am using "MKPinAnnotationView" - it should be changed to "MKAnnotationView" and everything works.

Fixed code:

- (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)newMapView viewForAnnotation:(id )newAnnotation {
    MKAnnotationView *annotation = [[MKAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:newAnnotation reuseIdentifier:@"currentloc"];

    if (annotation == nil) {
        annotation = [[MKAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:newAnnotation reuseIdentifier:@"currentloc"];
    }

    annotation.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"anno.png"];
    annotation.canShowCallout = YES;
    annotation.rightCalloutAccessoryView = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeDetailDisclosure];
    UIImageView *imgView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"bus_stop_30x30.png"]];
    annotation.leftCalloutAccessoryView = imgView;

    return annotation;
}
