    On the coins, there will be many animals of the ocean:
    codfishe
    s, dol
    phins, capelin fishe
    s, crab and a lumpfish. There will be four traditional protector spirits ("Landvættir"), mythical creatures:
    The bull (Griðungur) is the protector of northwestern Iceland,
    The eagle or griffin (Gammur) protects northeastern Iceland,
    The dragon (Dreki) protects the southeastern part,
    The rock-giant (Bergrisi) is the protector of southwestern Iceland.
    Great respect was given to these creatures of Iceland, so much that there was a law during the time of the Vikings that no ship should bear grimacing symbols (most often dragonheads on the bow of the ship) when approaching Iceland.
