Comments

Great House Greyjoy of Pyke is an ancient house from the harsh Iron Islands. The coins feature unique depictions of the Greyjoys as kings of the Iron Islands and krakens, the sigil of their house. The Iron Islanders follow the old ways and use what has been taken by force, so these coins were probably minted on top of other Westerosi coinage that was stolen during a raid.
