| Reverse description | Detailed depiction of Hel, the Norse goddess of the underworld, rendered in high relief with an antique finish. The figure is shown with her characteristic dual nature: one side of her body depicted as living flesh and the other as an emaciated, skeletal arm. Tormented lost souls are portrayed in the background field, evoking the realm of Niflheim. The runic inscription ᚺᛖᛚ and the Latin legend HEL appear in the field, along with the series title NORSE GODS along the upper border. |
