Thanks all!!
Okay here we go.
How about another match the coin roind?
The copper art round above depicts a Nordic Mythological scene on both sides.
The Obverse shows Nidhoggr the mythical dragon the gnaws at the root of the world tree. You can see he is underground standing on the roots. in this scene.
The reverse depicts a scene of the World Tree also known as Yggdrasil. Yggdrasil is a Massive tree that connects the nine worlds in Norse mythology.
There are also three animals shown on the reverse.
The Stag known as Dainn (A Male red deer) is one of the four stags known to eat from the leaves of the world tree.
The snake (sea serpent) you see is know as Jörmungandr. Thought to be the child of Loki and Angrboða. Jörmungandr was taken as a child by Odin and tossed into the ocean that surrounds Midgard (Norse word for the Earth). It then grew so long that it could surround the world with its body.
There is also a Raven on the reverse this is one of 2 ravens known as Huggin and Munnin. According to Norse mythology these 2 fly all over the world and bring info back to Odin.
Now for the points. Hopefully this won't be too hard.
