The latest coins in our awesome THE LORD OF THE RINGS™ Middle-earth series have arrived – and they’re a real spectacle! Made of pure gold and silver, they feature the impressive Argonath in Gondor.
Rounding a bend in the river all eyes rise to behold a spectacle seen by few, the mighty Argonath: The Pillars of the Kings. With feet planted as if gliding upon the water, two great statues rise far above with arms raised in challenge and weapons clutched tight to their chests. Crowns adorn their great grey heads while stone eyes gaze north in ceaseless vigilance. Hewn by many hands from living rock, the Argonath are carved in the likeness of the kings of old, Aragorn’s kin. In centuries past they guarded the boundary of ancient Gondor, standing immovable against the foes of Númenor; projections of the power and majesty of a people now all but gone.
Created in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, the 3oz silver coin has a large 55mm diameter to give an expansive view of this grand landscape, whereas the 1oz silver and ¼oz gold coin give a detailed close-up. Each coin is fully engraved with added relief which is lighter at the bottom to mimic the water reflection – now that’s cool! The silver coins include a striking antique finish while the gold coin includes texture, using sandblasting, and a mirrored background, making it shine!
Turn to the obverse for the Public Seal of Niue, confirming each coin as legal tender. All have a limited worldwide mintage – the gold coin as low as 300. You better be quick!
Modern, themed packaging keeps your coin safe. The gold coin comes in a separate high-quality magnetized display case. Provided for each are a Certificate of Authenticity and the coin’s unique serial number.
Add this famous spectacle to your THE LORD OF THE RINGS™ collection!
