Osborne Mint Hobo Nickel Antiqued Silver Proof Series

The raw strength and ferocity of the Vikings is no secret – especially berserkers’ – the Viking’s champion warriors. These 1 oz Antiqued Viking Berserker Silver Proofs from the Osborne Mint celebrate the rich culture and heritage of the Nordic regions with a brilliant design and pure silver.

These silver proofs are part of a relatively fresh series of Hobo Nickels from Osborne Mint in the United States. A Hobo Nickel is a sculptural art form – involving the modification of designs of lower denomination circulating coinage.

Each of these silver proofs contains 1 troy ounce of 0.999 pure silver, and uses the 5-cent American coin as it’s base.

The coins bear a brilliant antiqued finish that successfully ages them – highlighting their year of issue. On the reverse sides of these coins, the awe-inspiring rendition of raw Viking Berserker fury will leave the beholder dumbstruck. However, original inscriptions (‘United States of America,’ ‘E Pluribus Unum,’ and ‘Five Cents’) that featured on the 5-cent coins are left unchanged.

The obverse displays an incredible dragon portrayal – conquering the harsh sea waves. A Viking ship on the waves is seen carrying warriors who bravely attack the fearsome dragon.
With a mintage limited to just 5,500 coins, these 1 oz Antiqued Viking Berserker Silver Proofs will run out of stock in no time. The combination of Vikings and pure silver content in addition to brilliant designs make them excellent investment assets, gifting items, as well as collectibles.
