Thor is known as the God of Thunder in Norse mythology. His status is said to come from the sound created by his chariot as he rides across the sky. The rolling rumble of his chariot creates the sound of thunder, while his hammer creates bolts of lightning as he throws it against his enemies. Some say the sound of crackling thunder also comes from Thor riding across the sky crushing the skulls of frost giants, trolls, and other beasts with his hammer, Mjolnir.
The obverse side of 1 oz Silver Norse God Series Thor Rounds includes a depiction of Thor. In this design, you can see Thor holding out his hammer from the back of his chariot as he rides through the skies. He wears a helmet with large, towering wings and the sky behind him begins to fill with clouds and light up as bolts of lightning begin to gather. Thor is the son of Odin, with his mother being the giantess Fjoygyn. His chariot is pulled across the sky by massive goats name Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjostr.
On the reverse field of Silver Norse God Series Thor Rounds is a member of the Valkyrie. Valkyrie are female warriors chosen by Odin to be in the sky above during the battles of mankind. Odin and his Valkyrie watch over the battles and determine who lives and who dies. Those slain in battle who fought valiantly are collected by the Valkyrie and escorted to Valhalla to live in eternal glory.
