To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the theatrical release of the first installment of Peter Jackson's trilogy, the Monnaie de Paris will present a collection of precious gold and silver coins dedicated to the legendary saga of The Lord of the Rings in 2026. From the Shire to Mordor, the perilous epic of the Fellowship of the Ring is now engraved in metal, celebrating a mythical saga that has become a true pillar of the fantasy genre.
In the heart of Lórien, Galadriel welcomes the Fellowship to a timeless sanctuary, where light seems to preserve what the outside world has already lost. Before their departure for Mordor, she entrusts Frodo with a vial containing the fragment of Eärendil.
"May she be a light to you in dark places, when all others fail."
This light becomes a guide in the darkness, a silent reminder of hope when all seems lost. A deposit of colored ink adorns the vial.
The reverse of this coin features the face value surrounded by two branches, one oak and the other laurel, reminiscent of the euro symbol. The entire reverse design is framed by the inscription "République Française" and a series of lines representing the outline of France.
