From the void that was the rest of the universe, the first god, Ometeotl, created itself. Ometeotl was both male and female, good and evil, light and darkness, fire and water, judgment and forgiveness, the god of duality. Ometeotl gave birth to four children, the four Tezcatlipocas, who each preside over one of the four cardinal directions. Over the West presides the White Tezcatlipoca, Quetzalcoatl, the god of light, mercy and wind. Over the South presides the Blue Tezcatlipoca, Huitzilopochtli, the god of war. Over the East presides the Red Tezcatlipoca, Xipe Totec, the god of gold, farming and Spring time. And over the North presides the Black Tezcatlipoca, also called simply Tezcatlipoca, the god of judgment, night, deceit, sorcery and the Earth.
The reverse of this coin is so full of scenery it’s difficult to describe in a short paragraph. In the middle of the reverse, the inner circle, the first gods (moon & sun) from the void are represented in traditional Aztec style. The ring around the circle depicts the four gods for each wind direction with the crocodile teeth below. The remainder of the coin is divided into 5 sections each with scenery of the 5 suns or creations of world. From the edge to the middle there is a huge height difference in such a way all the suns are in the sky. On the edge there are the inscriptions ‘FIRST SUN’ ‘SECOND SUN’ ‘THIRD SUN’ ‘FOURTH SUN’ ‘FIFTH SUN’ with some ornaments. In the design of the fifth sun is written 2021 (the year of issue).
