| Reverse description | High-relief depiction of the legendary Norse chieftain Björn Ironside engaged in fierce combat with a large bear. The bearded warrior, clad in intricately detailed knotwork-engraved armour and fur mantle, grasps the bear with his bare hand while driving a bloodied knife into the creature's open maw, with red enamel colour applied to the wound and mouth of the bear for dramatic effect. The warrior wears a Thor's hammer (Mjölnir) pendant and braided hair, rendered with exceptional sculptural detail. The field behind the figures suggests a mountainous landscape. The legend BJÖRN IRONSIDE is inscribed in runic-style Latin lettering along the lower right arc of the border. |
