Oh yeah!!!! And its has a dragon on it. Man I cant wait to have this one in my hand.

Here is a little information about the series and coin from jmbullion.
Each 5 oz Antique Viking Berserker Round in the Hobo Nickel Series is available to you inside of a protective plastic capsule. Included with your purchase is an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity which reflects the edge-lettered serial number found on the round.

The antique finish of the Viking Berserker Round creates the visual impression of an ancient coin. Antique polishes are often added to coins or rounds for this exact purpose, while also brining the added benefit of highlighting the intricate details of the design elements.

Viking Berserker warriors were the champion warriors of Norse society. Tales of the Berserkers are found throughout Icelandic sagas, which chronical the trance-like fury with which these warriors fought on the field of battle. As if their physical appearance wasnt frightening enough, Viking Berserkers seemed to fear no man in battle.

On the reverse of the 5 oz Antique Viking Berserker Round youll find the image of a Berserker warrior. This Viking soldier is captured with a horned helmet, braided hair, and a double-headed battle axe in his hands. His mighty swing of the axe delivers enough power to decimate any opponent on the field of battle.

The obverse of the Viking Berserker Rounds includes the design of a Viking longship under attack by a dragon. The valiant warriors powering the famed Viking craft attempt to fight off the attack without fear of death. Engravings on both sides of the round reflect those of the original Buffalo Nickel, with Liberty and a year of issue on this side, as well as a face value, nation of issue, and E Pluribus Unum on the reverse.

The Hobo Nickel Series in 2017 offers new designs from the 2016 issue and each one comes from a different designer in this year. Aleksey Saburov created the Viking Berserker round, the 9th release from HotCos famed Hobo Nickel Series.

Wow that is an extensive design for a Hobo Nickle!!! Beautiful!!!

Vikings, Dragons and 5oz. What could be better?

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

Nice rounds, hefty premiums though.👍

...And my Axe!!!

That is a really nice round. I like the design on it. I also like that it's 5 ounces. It's interesting that they put "Five cents" on it though since it's not minted by the US Mint. The antique finish looks great on it.
