Interesting fact
The Aztec Five Suns coin from Palau features a unique design that showcases the ancient Aztec calendar system, which consisted of five interlocking cycles: the Tonalpohualli (a 260-day cycle), the Xiuhpohualli (a 365-day cycle), the Tlacaxipehualiztli (a 260-day cycle), the Tepuztecatl (a 260-day cycle), and the Calli (a 18-month cycle). This coin's design combines all five cycles in one cohesive image, making it a truly distinctive and educational collectible.
