Dear Davide

There seems to be a bit an inconsistency in the files you provided:

The coordinate section can't be in an XYZ file (CP2K will fail while 
parsing it).

Now, when I enter the coordinates you mention into an XYZ file, CP2K 
gives me:

   Atom  Kind  Element       X           Y           Z          Z(eff) 
     Mass

        1     1 Co  27    3.108670    4.979180    4.103000     17.00 
  58.9332
        2     2 C    6    5.012420    5.338520    4.024640      4.00 
  12.0107
        3     3 O    8    6.120010    5.547740    3.979040      6.00 
  15.9994
        4     2 C    6    3.039780    4.921110    2.166350      4.00 
  12.0107
        5     3 O    8    2.999670    4.887060    1.039490      6.00 
  15.9994
        6     2 C    6    3.177500    5.036160    6.039690      4.00 
  12.0107
        7     3 O    8    3.217530    5.069060    7.166590      6.00 
  15.9994
        8     4 H    1    1.543250    4.684900    4.167410      1.00 
   1.0079

which looks correct.

Also, when I put the &COORD section you provided in the provided input 
file instead of the &TOPOLOGY, I get:

        1     1 Co  27    3.108670    4.979180    4.103000     17.00 
  58.9332
        2     2 C    6    5.012420    5.338520    4.024640      4.00 
  12.0107
        3     3 O    8    6.120010    5.547740    3.979040      6.00 
  15.9994
        4     2 C    6    3.039780    4.921110    2.166350      4.00 
  12.0107
        5     3 O    8    2.999670    4.887060    1.039490      6.00 
  15.9994
        6     2 C    6    3.177500    5.036160    6.039690      4.00 
  12.0107
        7     3 O    8    3.217530    5.069060    7.166590      6.00 
  15.9994
        8     4 H    1    1.543250    4.684900    4.167410      1.00 
   1.0079

Which also seems ok.

Best regards,
Tiziano
