Step back into ancient Cusco with the 2022 Solomon Islands $4 "Incan House of the Sun" coin, a tribute to the legendary golden Coricancha temple. Standing at the spiritual heart of Cusco, Peru, this sacred sanctuary was once famed for its golden walls. Here the Incas worshiped Inti, the great sun god, through ceremonies and sacred llama offerings. Though the original temple's legendary riches were stripped during the Spanish conquest, its magnificent architectural legacy endures in this interactive, silver coin.

Struck from 1.5 ounces of 99.99% pure silver, this shaped coin's reverse features the House of the Sun designed as a fully playable, built-in maze. With a twist and a tilt of the coin a tiny ball can be navigated toward the sun god Inti at the center. Alongside the maze is a llama near the bottom-left entrance, and the inscription "Incan House of the Sun." The reverse features an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II encircled by an Incan calendar.
