Struck by Coin Invest Trust using patented SmartMinting® technology, the High Relief imagery on this coin looks more like an artifact straight off the wall of a museum gallery than a coin.

The Last King Of The Aztec Empire

Released on behalf of the Cook Islands, this legal-tender $5 coin shows Cuauhtemoc with the Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlan in the background. To top it off, these coins were struck with a gorgeous Proof finish, meaning they were expertly crafted from hand-selected planchets, polished dies, and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields. The splendor and legacy of the Aztec Empire are immortalized in its remarkable achievements in architecture, art, and engineering, alongside its rich cultural traditions and the powerful influence it exerted across Mesoamerica before its fall in the early 16th century. The last king of the Aztec Empire, Cuauhtemoc ascended to the throne in 1520 at a time when the Aztec empire was besieged by Spanish invaders from one side and ravaged by smallpox on the other. Just 25 years old when he assumed power, Cuauhtemoc reigned for only a year before surrendering the kingdom to Hernan Cortes. Fearing Cuauhtemoc would lead a revolt, Cortes had the young king hanged to squash any thoughts of rebellion against Spanish rule.
