The Norse Gods are some of the most popular from human mythology. Worshipped by ancient Norse cultures, the structure of the god stories in Norse mythology is similar to that of Roman and Greek god legends. In particular, there is a place where the gods are said to live and one god, in particular, who rules over not just the world itself, but the other gods. In Norse mythology, the All-Father god is Odin. Provident Metals currently has 1 oz Silver Norse God Series Odin Rounds available to you for purchase online.

Obverse

Odin is depicted seated on his throne in Asgard on the obverse of the 1 oz Silver Norse God Series Odin Round. The ornate and detailed design shows Odin sitting with his trusted spear in his right hand, a spear that never misses the mark. At his sides, ravens are perched on the arms of Odins throne. It is the job of these two raves to circle the world each day and serve as the eyes and ears of Odin among humanity. Also seated near him are two wolves: one behind and one in front of the throne. The inscriptions on this face of the round include Odin and The All-Father.

Reverse

The common design element of all 1 oz Silver Norse God Series Odin Rounds in this series is that of a warrior maiden known as a Valkyrie. The women who ride as the Valkyrie are chosen by Odin and are known as the Chooser of the Slain. The Valkyrie ride their horses in the skies above battles choosing who wins and who dies. Among the slain, those who die an honorable death are scooped up by the Valkyrie and taken to Valhalla. You will find inscriptions on this face of Valkyrie, Chooser of the Slain, and 1 Ounce .999 Fine Silver.

History

Odin is the most important god in Norse mythology, as evidenced by his title as the All-Father. He is the oldest god and ruler of Asgard, the realm of the gods in Norse mythology. He is said to spend some of his time in Midgard, the land of mankind, walking around in a disguise, of sorts, consisting of a wide-brimmed hat and cloak while walking with a staff.
