Freya is the daughter of Njord and has a twin sister by the name of Frey. Though her prominence in the modern world may have faded, there is still a nod to Freya in the English language. The term Friday, the final day of the workweek, comes from a combination of Freya and day. The English language honored the love and beauty of Freya with a day in her honor.
In Norse mythology, Freya is officially the Goddess of Love. While her primary role is to preside over love, beauty, sexuality, and fertility, she has a number of secondary roles. These include presiding over gold, war, and death. Most importantly, she is the leader of the Valkyrie, the warrior maidens who determine who lives and who dies in human battles.
On the obverse side of 1 oz Silver Norse God Series Freya Rounds, you will find an effigy of the Goddess of Love. Freya is shown here lifting her hands toward the sky as she rides in her chariot driven by two cats. She is wearing a cloak of falcon feathers as a falcon flies overhead. It is believed that Freya had the ability to shapeshift with the help of her falcon cloak, and when she changes shape she takes on the form of a falcon.
The reverse field of Silver Norse God Series Freya Rounds is a depiction of a Valkyrie rider. The rider is wearing a winged helmet with a sword and shield at hand as she rides on a powerful steed. The Valkyrie pick up those who die valiantly in battle and deliver them to Valhalla, the great hall of Odin in Asgard where the honorable live on for eternity feasting, drinking, and fighting.
These 1 oz Silver Norse God Series Freya Rounds are available with protective plastic capsules. The silver rounds have a 24-karat gold-plated finish. This finish helps create contrasting visual elements between the designs and the background fields.
