| Reverse description | Imposing full-figure portrait of Eric Bloodaxe, the Norse Viking king, depicted as a formidable warrior in three-quarter view against a dramatic mountainous and cloud-filled background rendered in deep high relief. He wears a gilded horned helmet with an integral face guard and is clad in a fur-trimmed cloak fastened with gilded Celtic triskelion bosses, brandishing a large gilded battle axe adorned with interlaced knotwork in his right hand. A riveted round wooden shield with a gilded dragon device and central boss is carried on his left arm, with a sheathed sword visible at his side. Selective gold plating highlights the axe head, shield fittings, helmet, and brooch ornaments, creating vivid contrast against the antiqued silver field. The name ERIC BLOODAXE is inscribed in Roman capitals along the upper left arc of the coin. |
