VikingShipGuy Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hi all, I just stumbled across this site and see a lot of interesting posts. My main objective is to gather information and photos of ANYTHING featuring a Viking ship, especially on coins, medals and currency of the world. Any photos or notes are appreciated.

bagerap Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 There's quite a bit of this about: Possibly issued by a Norse re-enactment group. As for real coins or notes, the good people of this forum should be able to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My accumulation contains many varied pieces but, as I approach maturity, I'm finding world government issues the area I focus on most. The Isle of Man keeps striking and striking and more 1925 medals are on eBay than were ever produced! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoRnholio Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Not my coin, but I have one just like it that I am too lazy to image! Isle of Man 50p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cartwheel Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 The Isle of Man have issued several 50p coins with Viking ships on the reverse. Also the Republic of Irelad millenium £1 coin has the "Broighter boat" on the reverse which is very similar to a Viking longboat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saor Alba Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Don't have one, but USA minted an octagonal medal in 1925 commemorating Norse settlements to the N. America. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccg Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Around 2000 or so Canada issued a brass $5 coin. I believe there was an Norweigan 20 kroner that went with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
