Carved by the Mexica in the early 16th century, this Aztec sun stone is a complex piece of work that has many interpretations. Many believe though that this stone is a representation of the Aztec concept of time and the relationship between the Mexica and the gods. While the Aztec sun stone is currently on display in Mexico City, you can order this 1 Kilo Aztec Sun Stone Silver Stacker which displays a replica of the iconic work on the obverse and reverse. Order yours now, at JM Bullion.
Stacker Highlights:
Your order of the 1 Kilo Aztec Sun Stone Silver Stacker will arrive in an individual capsule to preserve the brand-new condition of your stacker. Each stacker contains 1 kilo of .999 pure silver. These stackers have a mintage of just 333 making them a great addition to any collection.
The Aztec sun stone was discovered in 1790 during repairs of the Mexico City Cathedral. It is now housed in the National Anthropology Museum in Mexico City. Measuring 12 feet in diameter and 39 inches thick, it’s regarded as one of the most famous pieces of Mexica sculpture. Believed to have been created between 1502 and 1520, this sun stone still doesn’t have a clear meaning as many scholars and archaeologists are still interpreting and making sense of the stone’s complex nature.
The obverse and reverse of each 1 Kilo Sun Stone Silver Stacker feature the same sun stone design. The design is a replica of the exact Aztec sun stone that was unearthed in 1790. While the central image on the sun stone remains unknown, most believe the center features the face of the solar deity, Tonatiuh. The face of the deity is encased in the symbol of movement, known as Ōllin. The central ring features 20 glyphs representing the 20 days of the Aztec calendar. The other border is wrapped by two fire serpents. Inscriptions are placed on the edge of the stacker.
