DESCRIPTION
Set sail with 'Erik the Red', the second coin in the 'The Way to Valhalla' series by MINT XXI. Clad in the tempest of exploration and conquest, the coin captures the Viking chieftain in his most formidable guise: axe in hand, a raven companion, and his gaze as piercing as the cold northern seas. Enhanced with digital printing that breathes fire into his red beard and hair, and sculpted in high relief, it showcases the might of his arms. Banished from Iceland, he sailed beyond the edge of the known world to Greenland, founding the first Norse settlements amidst ice and stone.
Venture into the silver saga of Erik the Red's adventurous life with the spirit of exploration and the courage to forge new paths.
