2021 Niue $2 35-gm Silver Lord of the Rings - Map of Middle Earth Colored Foil Note

Chart a Course for Adventure with the Silver Foil Map of Middle Earth

Any fan of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings trilogy of books and films is familiar with its Map of Middle Earth, a detailed illustration of the imaginary world in which the story is set. Tolkien often consulted this map while he was writing his books and once the books were completed the map helped guide readers through the complex and immersive tale. Like any good starting place, the Map of Middle Earth is now the first release in the Lord of the Rings Foil Note Series!

Faithful Design Features All of Middle Earth’s Major Landmarks

Struck by the New Zealand Mint in 35 grams of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, this officially licensed foil note faithfully replicates the famous Map of Middle Earth that graced the pages of Tolkien’s trilogy: Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers and The Return of the King. All the major landmarks are there, The Shire, Rohan, Gondor, Mordor, the Misty Mountains, the bleak forest of Mirkwood…. And more! Plus, the addition of colorization gives the foil note an aged look as if it was taken from the coat pocket of a curious and adventurous Hobbit.

Released on behalf of Niue, each Silver Lord of the Rings – Map of Middle Earth Colored Foil Note is $2 legal tender and comes beautifully housed in its original mint packaging that consists of a large acrylic capsule and a themed carrier.
