The term Vikings is a modern-era label for the people from Norway and Sweden, with many Anglican cultures referring to these marauders as Danes, a nod to those Viking warriors hailing from Denmark.

Starting in the late 8^th century, the Norsemen known today as Vikings began to emerge from Scandinavia to ravage the European continent. While the legacy of the Vikings is largely burned into the minds of pop-culture enthusiasts as a group of raiding barbarians, Vikings were much more than just ruthless thugs. It was the Vikings who expanded sea trade routes from Europe to the Middle East and North Africa. It was also the Vikings who would go on to use their expertise in sailing to navigate to the shores of North America as the first Europeans to settle in the New World.

Obverse designs on the 5 oz Monarch Double Axe Viking Silver Bar include a vision of a ferocious Viking warrior. This Norseman is wearing a horned helmet and wielding two massive axes as he prepares for battle.

Reverse visuals on the 5 oz Monarch Viking Silver Bar available here include the common design of the series. Viking longships not only enabled Norse people to explore the world via the seas, but also enabled the swift sea-based attack strategies of the Vikings. Longships had a double-bow design and shallow draft. This allowed the Vikings to navigate into shallow waterways, beach their ships to come ashore, raid inland, and then quickly escape by rowing out without having to turn their vessels around first.
