Very good  @Admin , it seems a nice well-made round that will appeal to them as likes that sort of thing. I love the background and Eric does have a much better face than the Germanias, although the Germanias' faces are probably not what most buyers are looking at. lol!  I had always thought that it was a myth that Vikings wore horned helmets, but they do look more spectacular than the plain helmets discovered so far.
I think I'll stick with the Fiji warriors series though.
Like you I was intrigued by the fact that the mint is unidentified. When I get a moment I might do some research on eBay as some sellers do specify the mints. Bold Metals has it as 'Unspecified Mint' - perhaps there is a mint with that name. I'll update if I find anything, but don't hold your breath. I'm sure better researchers that I am have had a look.

I was not going to bother with this one but you have changed my mind on it.

Here is a Quote from my YouTube page

I think the designer is Chris Duane, going by those Celtic symbols, he does Silver Shield, minted by Golden State Mint, not sure


I am not convinced but it is a interesting thought.   hmmm ???
