The "Pyramid of the Sun" was a monument dedicated to the sun and was of exceptional importance for all Teotihuacans. It is oriented according to astronomical considerations, and has a small deviation on the north side. I presume that this is the same famous pyramid that appears on the regular Mexican coinage 20 Centavo pieces of 1943 - 1974.
