Obverse description The obverse features a highly detailed relief rendition of the Mesoamerican Sun Stone (often associated with the Aztec or Mayan calendar), with a central face deity surrounded by multiple concentric rings of glyphs and calendar symbols. Four pointed star-like projections divide the outer ring, and the entire field is filled with intricate mythological imagery including serpents and zoomorphic figures.
