| Obverse description | Uniface pattern strike depicting a stylized representation of the Aztec Sun Stone (Calendario Azteca), centrally positioned within the field. The design renders the concentric circular motifs and iconographic elements of the Mexica solar calendar in low relief, including the central solar deity face surrounded by successive rings of calendar glyphs and symbolic imagery. The coin bears no legends, inscriptions, or border devices, leaving the field otherwise plain. The overall composition is faithful to the monumental stone carving associated with the Mexica culture. |
