The Danegeld (Danish tax/Dane tribute) was a tax raised to pay tribute to the
Viking raiders to save a land from being ravaged. It was called the geld or gafol in eleventh-century sources.
It was characteristic of royal policy in both England and Francia during the ninth through
eleventh centuries, collected both as tributary, to buy off the attackers, and as stipendiary,
to pay the defensive forces. Almost always paid in silver because the vikings used this
metal as their main currency for trade.

The court cards feature legendary viking leaders of Scandinavia (800-1000 AD)
and deities of Norse mythology, with Odin as the King of Spades. Illustrations are drawn in hand
by professional illustrator Patrick Leis and lead artist Nicolai Aarøe. Courts are identical in the two decks.
