Cook Islands 2016 Norse Gods Frigg $10 High Relief 2 Oz Silver Coin NGC MS70

Ancient gods have spawned a healthy new selection of numismatics over the last couple of years, featuring deities worshipped in ancient times. First choices are usually the Roman or Greek gods, but the Norse gods are far more interesting, and it seems many mints agree. Struck by the masters at BH Mayer in Germany, undoubtedly one of the very best mints in the world from both a quality and a technical point, these series is dedicated to Gods of Norse mythology. Many high-relief coins, they have slight concavity to the reverse side, thus enhancing the coin’s visual appeal. The artwork is very attractive and the written inscriptions are well integrated into the design, consistent and not excessive. The traditional obverse of the Cook Islands coin features the portrait of Her Majesty Elizabeth II surrounded by the inscriptions: the Queens name, the face value of the coin, its issuing country and year. The reverse of the coins is struck with an exceptional high relief technique that results in a stunning visual effect and remarkable design. THE COIN IS GRADED AS PERFECT BY NGC AND ALSO COMES WITH MINT-ISSUED COA. Giving her name to the English weekday name Friday (Frges day), Frigg is described in nearly all sources as the wife of the god Odin. She also is described as a goddess associated with foreknowledge and wisdom in Norse mythology, the northernmost branch of Germanic mythology and most extensively attested. Frigg dwells in the wetland halls of Fensalir, is associated with the goddesses Fulla, Lofn, Hlín, and Gná, and is ambiguously associated with the Earth, otherwise personified as an apparently separate entity Jörð (Old Norse Earth). The children of Frigg and Odin include the gleaming god Baldr. DON’T HESITATE TO ASK QUESTIONS AND PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER LISTINGS! FOR CUSTOMERS IN UNITED STATES.
