I’m a little surprised to learn Vikings had coins of their own.

I thought they were too much into plundering others to mint coins.

Adjusting stereotype now to horned plunderers who mint coins.

Keep adjusting your stereotypes - their helmets didn’t have horns!

Contrary to the horned-helmet plunderers the Vikings developed extensive trade routes, especially in Russia along the Volga River.
