| Reverse description | A large, convex golden sun disc modelled after the Tiwanaku deity Viracocha occupies the entire reverse field in deeply struck high relief. The central boss features an imposing stylised face with large rectangular eye sockets, a prominent nose, and a wide rectangular mouth with serrated teeth, rendered in the Pre-Columbian Andean artistic tradition. Radiating outward from the central visage is an ornate border filled with repeating geometric and zoomorphic motifs characteristic of Tiwanaku iconography. The date 2021 is incused in the lower exergue. |
