Aztec Calendar silver coin

This huge 1 kilo silver coin is produced by Banco De Mexico. The coin contains 32.15oz of 999 purity silver, but it’s the stunning detail of the Aztec Calendar Sun Stone that really makes this collectible silver coin desirable. Such beautiful detail simply isn’t possible on regular 1oz size coins dus to lack of space.

Mintage is striclty limited to only 1,000 pieces worldwide, making it hugely appealing to silver coin collectors.
