Aztec Calendar 1/4 oz Silver Round (New)

The Aztec Calendar 1/4 oz Silver Round compresses one of antiquity’s most intricate artworks onto a quarter troy ounce of .999 fine silver. The design has made this series a longtime favorite among stackers who want artistry with their bullion, and the quarter-ounce size opens it up as an affordable trade piece, gift, or entry point for new silver buyers.

Key Features:

• Purity and Weight: 1/4 troy ounce of .999 fine silver
• Metal Type: Investment-grade silver bullion, IRA eligible
• Obverse: A full rendering of the Aztec Calendar Stone
• Reverse: A portrait of Cuauhtémoc, the last Aztec emperor, ringed by weight and purity inscriptions

The obverse reproduces the Aztec Calendar Stone in miniature, keeping a remarkable amount of its carved complexity. The sun god Tonatiuh occupies the center, ringed by the glyphs of the four previous world eras, then by concentric bands carrying the twenty day-signs of the ritual calendar. Two fire serpents wrap the outer circumference, their ornate bodies meeting at the disc’s base, and the original 1790-discovered monument now displayed in Mexico City’s National Museum of Anthropology supplies every detail.

The reverse honors Cuauhtémoc, who commanded the empire’s last defense of Tenochtitlan in 1521. His left-facing portrait wears an elaborate feathered headdress cascading behind the shoulder, a large circular ear ornament, and patterned armor, with his name inscribed beneath. QUARTER TROY OUNCE arcs across the top, 999 FINE SILVER wraps the lower rim, and a border of stepped Mesoamerican ornament frames the whole face.

Each round ships in new condition. At .999 fineness it meets IRS purity requirements and is eligible for precious metals IRAs, and fractional rounds like this divide a silver position into small, easily traded units.

Centuries of symbolism struck into a quarter ounce. Order the Aztec Calendar 1/4 oz Silver Round today and collect the series at its most accessible size.
