Royal Mint, Odin 20g Gold Minted Bullion Bar (restocking)

Description

The stories of Norse mythology have fascinated and captured imaginations for millennia. Worshipped by Scandinavians during the Viking Age, including those who settled in Britain, the Norse gods central to this mythology are complex supernatural beings – fearsome and mighty yet simultaneously comic and mischievous.

Odin is the father of the Norse gods who reside in Asgard, the celestial realm. The All-Father is also known as ‘Lord of the Slain’, as fallen warriors are chosen to join Odin in Valhalla, the great hall where they drink, feast and fight until Ragnarök, the twilight of the gods.

For this beautiful minted bullion bar, the All-Father majestically sits at the forefront of the design clutching his mighty spear, Gungnir. His ravens, Huginn and Muninn, sit on his shoulders and his wolves, Geri and Freki, lie at his feet.
