CINEMATIC 5 OZ SILVER AZTEC CALENDAR ROUND

Cinematic glimpse of the absolutely gorgeous 5 Oz Aztec calendar round by the Golden State Mint.
5 oz Silver Aztec Calendar Round.
Contains 5 Troy ounces of .999 fine silver.
Obverse: features the historic Aztec Calendar stone.
Reverse: displays Cuauhtémoc, the final Emperor of Tenochtitlan, an Aztec‑style border, and the inscriptions “FIVE TROY OUNCES,” “.999 FINE SILVER,” and “CUAUHTÉMOC.”
Produced by Golden State Mint.
Round carries no face value and is not legal tender.
The obverse displays the Aztec Calendar stone with remarkable detail. It’s focal point is the circular inset that represents the sun, or Tonatiuh, the solar deity. The presence of Tonatiuh has also given rise to the alternate name of the stone, the Sun Stone. In each of its claws is grasped a human heart, and out of its mouth extends a sacrificial knife of stone. Each element of the Calendar stone is meticulously placed to provide an ordered structure of the measurement of the calendar’s cycles of time.
The reverse displays a very powerful depiction of Cuauhtémoc, final Emperor of Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztec Empire. His name means “descending eagle.” Upon the conquest of the Spaniards over the Aztec Empire, Cuauhtémoc was executed in 1525.
