Age of the Vikings Silver Coin Album
Description
Age of the Vikings Silver Coin Album with Abbasid Dirham
Discover a fascinating side of Viking history that goes far beyond longships and raids. The Vikings were also explorers and traders whose commercial networks reached across Europe, Russia, Constantinople, and the Islamic world. Silver played an important role in that far-reaching economy.
This Educational Coin Company presentation album features an Abbasid silver dirham—the same type of coin found in Viking-age hoards. Because the Norse did not mint their own coins for much of the Viking Age, Arabic dirhams acquired through trade and conflict became a recognized form of portable silver wealth.

- Presented in an illustrated educational portfolio album
- Produced by Educational Coin Company
- Manufacturer order code: VIKINGALB
- Album measures approximately 11 x 7.5 x 0.1 inches

Condition and Important Details
This is a genuine historical coin housed in a modern presentation album. Ancient and medieval coins commonly show circulation wear, irregular striking, surface deposits, toning, edge variation, or partially readable legends. The precise date, mint, design details, color, and condition of the coin supplied may vary. No specific numerical grade is represented.
The coin is historically connected to the Viking Age by type; it is not represented as Viking-minted or as having been recovered from a Viking hoard. Unless photographs are expressly identified as showing the exact item, images should be considered representative.
An appealing display piece for collectors of ancient and world coins, Viking enthusiasts, medieval-history readers, educators, or anyone seeking a distinctive historical gift.
