The denomination for this massive 45mm silver coin ( 10 Kronur) appears on the edge.

It was minted as a private contract instigated by a parliamentary committee of the Icelandic `Althing' (parliament) by the Saxony State Mint at Muldenhutten to commemorate 1,000 years of the `Althing'. It is referenced in Krause Mischler as KM-M3. Sadly, this one exhibits what looks to be an attemted piercing. Still a nice item and rarely seen these days.

I have wanted one of those for a long time, they are quite probably one of the world's most beautiful coins

That's quite nice. The edge carries the denomination does it also carry the country info?

No other detail whatsoever.
