Zia People Pueblo de Zia Pressed Penny Elongated Coin
Honor a legacy of deep spiritual meaning and Southwest heritage. Captured beautifully on a bright copper canvas, this Pueblo de Zia pressed penny showcases one of the most respected and recognizable symbols in North America: the sacred Zia Sun Symbol.
For the indigenous Zia people of New Mexico, this ancient emblem represents far more than just a beautiful design; it carries a profound philosophy of life and harmony. The central circle represents the sun, the giver of all life, while the sixteen rays spreading outward reflect a perfect balance. Each group of four rays carries its own vital meaning—signifying the four directions of the compass, the four seasons of the year, the four phases of a single day, and the four obligations a person must develop in life (a clear mind, a pure spirit, a strong body, and a devotion to the welfare of others).
Famously adopted as the centerpiece of New Mexico’s state flag, the Zia symbol serves as a brilliant testament to the endurance, culture, and rich history of the Southwest.
Quick Symbol Stats:
- The Rays: Four groups of four rays, meticulously engraved to represent the delicate balance of the cosmos, nature, and human life.
