Viking currency, c. 850 AD.

This is wearable currency from the Viking era, c. 850 AD. During the time, Anglo-Saxon, Roman, and Arabic coins probably circulated in Norway. Coins in Norway were first struck under Olav Tryggvasson (995 - 1000 AD). The arch symbols around the border of these pieces are found on a lot of Viking currency. I believe part of the central design depicts a Viking ship, and perhaps a stylized Viking?
