Gods: Widar

Powerful, majestic, and fearless... such were the Germanic gods who created the world and boldly ruled over it. Descending from the primordial giants, they established an order in which there was room for humans and other beings. They shaped the dry land, oceans, mountains, seas, forests, the sky, clouds, the sun, and the moon. They defined day and night, the length of the year, and its seasons.

The heroes of the new series of Silver Cast Bars from Germania Mint will transport you to a realm full of masculine strength, power, and triumph. These are figures that left their mark on the fate of the world, leading to its end, Ragnarok.

The Silver Cast Bars Gods from Germania Mint, with a unique design, are made from 999.9 fine silver and are marked with an individual number and mint mark. Collect the entire set of six bars, released every two months, which feature the powerful gods.

Víðarr, the son of Odin and the giantess Gríðr, is the god associated with silence and vengeance. Because he spoke only when absolutely necessary, he was called "The Silent." In Germanic mythology, he is described as a god of extraordinary strength and unwavering determination.

He lived in a peaceful grove called Vidi, which was constantly overgrown with vegetation because Víðarr preferred to travel the world on his horse.

Víðarr symbolizes renewal and new beginnings, as he was one of the few who survived the apocalyptic end of the world. During Ragnarok, he avenges his father by killing Fenrir, smashing the wolf's lower jaw with his boot and then tearing his mouth apart with his hands. In the new world, he will be one of the rulers of the gods and, together with his half-brother Vali, will build temples for the gods.
