1 oz Copper Round - Aztec Calendar and Pyramid

---

This copper round showcases the remarkable artistry and complex design of ancient Mesoamerica. Struck from one avoirdupois ounce of 99.9 percent pure copper, the piece serves as a canvas for two of the most recognizable symbols of Aztec culture. One side of the round is dedicated to the incredibly detailed Aztec calendar, a complex system of timekeeping represented by concentric circles of symbolic imagery. The reverse side features a depiction of a stepped Aztec pyramid, rising toward the sky. Accompanying the pyramid illustration are inscriptions that verify the weight and purity of the metal, reading as 1 AVDP OZ 999 COPPER. Because copper is a highly reactive metal, these rounds may naturally develop unique coloration and toning over time. This natural oxidation process means each round can develop its own distinct character, highlighting the deep relief of the calendar and the architectural lines of the pyramid.
