Description
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the cinema release of the first chapter of Peter Jackson's trilogy, Monnaie de Paris will unveil a collection of precious coins dedicated to the legendary Lord of the Rings series in 2026.
From the Shire to Mordor, the perilous journey 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.
Faced with the relentless advance of Saruman's armies, King Théoden leads his people to Helm's Deep, the last refuge against the storm. Entrenched behind the ancient walls of Rohan's last stronghold, Théoden's men prepare for a final battle against the forces of Isengard.
As the walls of the stronghold fall, Théoden summons his courage for one last heroic charge. The arrival at dawn of the Riders of Rohan, led by Gandalf the White, turns the tide of battle, giving the peoples of Middle-earth a second wind.
The Collection
Embark on a quest for the most precious of collections. From the Shire to Mordor, the perilous epic of the Fellowship of the Ring is now etched in metal, celebrating a legendary saga that has become a true cornerstone of the fantasy genre.
I have always been fascinated by the richness and complexity of the world created by J.R.R. Tolkien. Having grown up reading his books, I have developed a deep attachment to the world of *The Lord of the Rings* over the years. It is now a special opportunity for the Monnaie de Paris to be able to create designs inspired by Tolkien’s legacy, adapting Peter Jackson’s characters and world to a different, new and vibrant medium.
Engraver word
Our craftman
THE ENGRAVER
Trained at the best schools, they have the years of experience behind them necessary to master all aspects of the craft. Using industrial oil-based modelling clay and working from a design executed freehand or with CAD software, they skilfully fashion a low relief model in order to enhance the engraving and the way it catches the light. They work alternately with concave and convex plaster moulds until satisfied they have achieved the best 3D rendering of the design.
THE MINTER
The first minters began to ply their trade in France when striking with a hammer appeared in the 4th century BC. Nowdays, minsters use press instead of a hammer. Their knowledge of dies, engraving and metals, and their expertise - passed seamlessly down from one generation to the next for centuries - guarantees the excellence of their work.
