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.
The last descendant of the ancient kings of Númenor, Aragorn ventures into the dark paths of the White Mountains, hoping to forge a decisive alliance against the armies of Mordor. Facing the Army of the Dead, he invokes his blood bond with Isildur, whom he betrayed during the War of the Last Alliance.
With this gesture, Aragorn forges an alliance born from a broken promise. The dead of Dunharrow thus become a decisive force in the service of the Free Peoples.
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.
