This medal has a date of November 11, 1012 on it which is the date that Vikings were maybe hanging around Heavener, Oklahoma. They supposedly left archeological evidence chiseled into rock outcroppings as evidence of their exploration of southeast Oklahoma. (There is a whole page devoted to this on an Oklahoma Historical site web page! Just search "Heavener Runestone")
It somehow made it on to the Oklahoma Bicentennial medal, so I guess it has to be true!
