Freyr was one of the most widely and passionately venerated divinities amongst the heathen Norse and other Germanic peoples. One Old Norse poem calls him the foremost of the gods and hated by none. The reasons for this arent hard to understand; their well-being and prosperity depended on his benevolence, which particularly manifested itself in sexual and ecological fertility, bountiful harvests, wealth, and peace. His role in providing health and abundance was often symbolized by his fylgja, the boar Gullinborsti (Golden-Bristled), and by his enormous, erect phallus. It shouldnt be surprising, then, that Freyr was a frequent recipient of sacrifices at various occasions, such as the blessing of a wedding or the celebration of a harvest. During harvest festivals, the sacrifice traditionally took the form of his favored animal, the boar. It has favorable breeze whenever it is used and can sail over land as well as sea. The sword that can fight by itself is also depicted on this wonderfully crafted coin.
