First of all I tried to rotate the pictures a couple of times but they still get uploaded like this and I seemingly cant figure it out what I am doing wrong.
So
- If you know how to fix it let me know
- I hope you can still enjoy the coins
- edit : for more detailed pictures I used some I found on google as it annyoed me quite a bit
First we have the Aztec Calendar which I think is absolutly stunning.
"The Aztec Calendar Stone, currently housed in the National Anthropology Museum in Mexico City, is the most famous work of Aztec sculpture in history. This incredibly intricate stone measures 12 feet in diameter, is over three feet thick, and weighs in at a whopping 24 tons. It was carved around the year 1500 as a means to describe the origins of the cosmos and the structure of the universe as the Aztecs saw it. And to this day, the Aztec Calendar stone endures as one of the most prominent emblems of Mexican culture."

Golden State Mint also released a 5 oz version of this medallion.
I ve read somewhere it should be 5 year series but I could not find that information anymore so take it with a graon of salt.
The second one is the first release of the "Big 5"
Again I think the design is amazing and one special about the coin is, if you have 2 the backsides form an elephant again.
There was also a release with 2 capsules next to each other.
The big 5 consists of the elephant, the lion, the rhino, the water buffalo and the jaguar.
The next release will be the lion in August 2019. The serie will end in February 2021
I blew my money on 2 more packages which hopefully arrive soon.
