This coin illustrates a bas-relief fragment found in the death chamber at the Palenque Inscriptions Temple. This unique pre-Columbian tomb contains a monolithic sarcophagus of approximately 10 feet long. Its a death chamber of a very important Mayan dignitary. Interestly, this image may be familiar to many because it has appeared in books claiming the figure is in a rocket ship and was used to support the notion that UFO's and aliens had influenced the advanced Mayan culture.
