It is estimated that there are more than 2 million cities in the world. Most of us have never thought about the number and variety of cities. Do you know which cities that existed centuries ago were important, powerful, and magnificent? Some of them have disappeared mysteriously, and only history, legends, and magnificent architecture remain. The Lithuanian Mint presents the second coin in the ''Lost World'' series. It is a coin dedicated to the city of Machu Picchu that tells the history of the city full of legends. The impressive and mysterious city of Machu Picchu is called the pride of Peru. It is considered a 16th century Inca city, which even today poses many questions to both history researchers and travelers. To date, it is one of the most mysterious and also one of the most protected places in the world. The territory of Machu Picchu is a no-fly zone, and the number of tourist tickets is limited. Legend says that the Inca territory located there was invaded by the Spanish conquistadors in 1532, but they did not manage to conquer the mountain city of Machu Picchu. Therefore, what happened and where the city residents fled remains unknown. The latest minting techniques, UV printing, and high relief were used to produce the coin. The mysterious and impressive city is portrayed on the reverse of the coin. The obverse contains a portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
