Warriors - Mayan Warrior 2 Oz
An exclusive silver coin issued by the State of Niue in 2020 in high relief weighing 2 Oz (62.2 g) in purity of the purest 99.9% silver with an Antique Standard finish is being released as part of the Warriors series, which will gradually introduce the legendary warriors. The second coin in the series features a Mayan warrior.
The coin bears a composite image on its reverse. The main figure is Holcan, a Mayan warrior from the Yucatán Peninsula. The warrior, with his weapon outstretched, goes into battle. The background shows priests in a sacrificial ritual and the pyramid of Chichén Itzá. The warrior's weapon, the animal skull on his helmet and the altar statues are gilded.
The Holcanob were a unit of volunteer warriors operating on the Yucatán Peninsula. Their member was a holcan, and his name conveyed courage and bravery. They were known as very ruthless warriors, following the motto "Death to my middle name". They came from the ranks of ordinary citizens and farmers, who in times of peace returned to their original duties. During the short and frequent wars, they served in the defence of the city and carried out raids on enemy territories. Prisoners of war were sacrificed by priests in a blood ritual. The Mayans were raised to feel no fear of death. Being sacrificed was considered an honorable death and a quick reunion with the gods.
The obverse shows the traditional portrait of Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain with the initials of the artist and the inscriptions "ELIZABETH II", "NIUE ISLANDS", the denomination and year of issue. It includes purity information and mint mark.
The coin comes in a presentation frame with a certificate of authenticity in a limited edition of only 500 pieces for the whole world!
