- Includes a historic silver Abbasid dirham struck between 750-800 A.D. which Vikings were known to trade for, steal, and hoard!
- Ever since their attack on a peaceful monastery at Lindisfarne in 793, Vikings have been associated with violence and savagery. However, they were really a complex society with well-developed art, rich mythos, and trade networks that stretched to Constantinople and beyond. Remarkably, Vikings did not mint coins for several centuries, instead using Arabic dirhams acquired through trade and pillaging!
- The coin is presented in circulated condition and housed in a protective capsule that makes it easy to examine the coin while keeping it safe from dust, dirt, and fingerprints.
- A handsome wooden display with a full color printed insert is included at no additional charge.
