For the second release, the mint has selected the Fenrir wolf, an ancient monster currently held prisoner, evident in the shackles on the round. Legend says that Fenrir, who has suffered unimaginable torment at the hands of Odin, will one day be freed by an earthquake and slay his captor.
The design of the round is extremely unique in that the wolf's body is continuous from obverse to reverse. The holder can flip the round and see the continuity of the beast in a shape resembling an infinity symbol.
The bicephalous eagle (two-headed eagle) is a Roman mythology symbol associated with Janus - the god of all origins, guardian of doors, gates, passages and bridges, the patron of contracts and alliances. Heads facing the opposite direction symbolize the past and the future.
