| Reverse description | Odin, the chief Norse deity, is depicted seated astride his eight-legged horse Sleipnir, holding a spear in his left hand in a commanding pose. One of his wolves runs alongside in the lower field, rendered with fine high-relief detail against a textured background evoking a mythological landscape. The name ODIN appears as a bold legend in the upper portion of the reverse field. The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark is present. The antiqued finish enhances the dramatic depth and sculptural quality of the design. |
