At the end of last month, an impressive find was made at the shipyard in Italy. A 2,000 year-old bronze Viking coin worth around $1 million has been found on a construction site that is currently being demolished to make room for new developments. The discovery happened when workers were drilling into some ancient foundations and cut through waterlogged debris where they discovered a metal box with around 100 coins inside it dating back from AD 835–870.
The “viking ocean ships deck plans” are a set of plans for the Viking Neptune, which was built in Italy. The ship is now on display at the National Museum of Denmark.
Viking Neptune, the company’s next ocean ship, has been floated out at the Fincantieri shipyard in Ancona, Italy.
When a member of the Viking crew cut a rope that indicated water to begin pouring into the ship’s constructing dock, the float out started approximately 11 a.m. local time. Neptune will be relocated to a nearby outfitting dock for final construction and interior build-out after a two-day procedure to get the yacht floating.

Neptune will have a gross tonnage of 47,800 tons and a capacity of 930 passengers.
Neptune will include all-balcony rooms with glass-doored showers and heated bathroom floors, much as its sister ships. The ship will include an aft infinity pool, an Explorers’ Lounge with a wall of glass windows, and a free spa thermal suite with a snow room, sauna, and other amenities.
The Restaurant, the ship’s main dining room with no set seating hours; Manfredi’s Italian Restaurant, an included speciality venue; World Café buffet; and Mamsen’s, a casual counter-service place in the Explorers’ Lounge featuring Norwegian dishes.

Viking’s ships are designed to the most recent navigational rules and are outfitted with cutting-edge safety technologies. They also have energy-efficient engines, enhanced hydrodynamics that decrease fuel consumption, and pollution-control systems for exhaust emissions.

Viking Neptune is set to launch in November 2022, making it the line’s seventh ocean ship (not including its two brand-new expedition ships, Viking Octantis and Polaris, which are also set to debut this year). Viking Mars, the company’s eighth ocean ship, is set to set sail in May.
“In 2022, we will celebrate a number of anniversaries, including our 25th anniversary and the tenth anniversary of the commencement of our ocean project,” stated Torstein Hagen, chairman of Viking. “We are thrilled to firmly establish Viking as the premier small ship travel business with the launch of the Viking Neptune and her identical sister ship, the Viking Mars, this year—along with the debut of our two new expedition ships and new river ships.”
Viking started working with Fincantieri in 2012, and the shipyard has further nine ocean boats planned with Viking until 2027.
