This 2 oz silver coin is the fourth issue of the “Norse Gods” collection and represents the gatekeeper of Asgard – Heimdall. 

Heimdall, also known as Heimdallr, is revered in Norse mythology as one of the most reliable and trustworthy deities. It was believed that he stands guard at the entrance of Asgard, protecting the realm of the Norse gods from malicious agents and invaders.

From his watchtower at the Himinbjörg (also known as the sky cliffs), Heimdall could see everything that took place in Asgard. It was also said that his watchtower sat on top of the Bifrost – a rainbow bridge that leads into Asgard.
