The Lord of the Rings - Gollum - (2026) - Silver Colored Collector's Coin

To mark the 25th anniversary of the release of the first installment of Peter Jackson’s trilogy, the Monnaie de Paris will unveil a collection of rare coins dedicated to the legendary *Lord of the Rings* series in 2026.

The perilous journey of the Fellowship of the Ring from the Shire to Mordor is now captured in metal, commemorating the mythical saga that has become a true cornerstone of the fantasy genre.

One of the unforgettable characters in this story is Gollum, a creature broken by time and the power of the One Ring. He lives on the fringes of society, torn between who he once was and what he has gradually become. He was once a Hobbit, but now he bears the marks of an obsession with the Ring that is slowly consuming him and erasing nearly all traces of his former innocence.

Gollum is at once a guide and a threat, a victim and a servant of the Ring. He embodies the fragility of beings exposed to the destructive power of Mordor. His fate serves as a reminder that even the deepest shadows can arise from an unhealthy attachment, and that no one is completely lost as long as at least a glimmer of light remains within them.
