Viking Dragon Shield Geocoin series



Viking Dragon Shield Geocoin (Skidbladnir)


Collection of 7 geocoins.



The design on the front is based upon a replica of a Viking shield. The 3D detailing really stands out. 

The wood grain texture combined with metal edges and nails holding it all together are all quite impressive. On the back, a verse from the Hávamál, part of the Edda, which is a collection of Old Norse poems from the Viking age. 

The Viking Dragon Shield Geocoin series is based upon the Viking mythology. 
Skidbladnir (Skíðblaðnir, old Norse "assembled from thin pieces of wood") is the best of ships in Norse mythology.
