The Way to Valhalla Series

The Way to Valhalla series celebrates the heroic sagas, warriors, and epic journeys of Norse mythology. Known for its intense artistry, high-relief sculpting, and dramatic antique finishing, the series has become a sought-after collection among fans of historical and mythological numismatics.

Each release explores a different figure, symbol, or event connected to Viking culture, with every coin produced in strictly limited quantities. This fourth issue, honoring Leif Eriksson, continues the series’ tradition of exceptional detail, emotional imagery, and creative storytelling through Silver.

Who Was Leif Eriksson?

Leif Eriksson—also known as Leif the Lucky—is one of the most famous figures of Viking exploration. Regarded by many historians as the first known European to set foot in North America, Eriksson’s voyages and leadership embody the bravery, seafaring skill, and legendary spirit associated with Norse culture. His longship expeditions, immortalized in both sagas and modern lore, represent the daring quest for discovery that lies at the heart of Viking identity.

This coin captures that spirit with a dramatic representation of Eriksson aboard his longship, wielding his battle ax and horn with fierce determination.
