2026 Samoa Huitzilopochtli’s Macuahuitl 2 oz Silver Antiqued High Relief Shaped Coin

Wield the Power of Huitzilopochtli

Step into the world of the Aztec Empire with a tribute to one of its most iconic weapons—the macuahuitl. Struck from 2 troy ounces of .999 fine silver, this shaped coin honors Huitzilopochtli, the Aztec god of sun and war. Finished in antiqued ultra high relief, it combines powerful artistry with layered symbolism.

The God of War in Stunning Detail

On the reverse, Huitzilopochtli strides forward in full warrior regalia. He clutches a Chimalli shield and the serpentine fire weapon Xiuhcoatl, symbols of strength and divine fire. Around him fly sacred hummingbirds, manifestations of his power and messengers of his will. Obsidian-inspired blade segments run along the macuahuitl’s edges, while Aztec motifs carved into its length deepen the connection to myth and history.

Cosmic Imagery on the Obverse

The obverse expands to the cosmic scale of Aztec belief. The sacred calendar stone dominates the design, surrounded by a ring of ancient glyphs. Beneath it, the four creator gods appear in relief, representing the directions and elements of the world. A towering pyramid anchors the scene, symbolizing the ceremonial heart of the empire. Each element contributes to a design that unites mythology, cosmology, and craftsmanship.
