Silver coin €10 Malta 2022 – The Lord of the Rings

The coin depicts in the center the White Tree of Gondor, the symbol of the continent of Gondor, which, according to the inhabitants, brought good luck. There is a famous text around the tree, which is also on the ring. The text says, “One Ring to rule them all, one Ring to find them, one Ring to gather them all and bind them in darkness.”

The Lord of the Rings is one of the biggest projects in the history of cinema. Its implementation took eight years; all three films were filmed simultaneously in New Zealand. The plot of the trilogy follows the hobbit Frodo Baggins, who goes on a campaign with the Fellowship of the Ring in order to destroy the Ring of Omnipotence. This is necessary for the final victory over its creator, the Dark Lord Sauron, whose goal is to capture all of Middle-earth. The Brotherhood breaks up, and Frodo continues his journey with his faithful companion Sam and the treacherous guide Gollum.
The trilogy was a major financial success and is one of the highest grossing film series ever made. The films were positively received by critics and won 17 Oscars out of 30 nominations. The final film in the trilogy, The Return of the King won all 11 Oscars for which it was nominated, a record number of Academy Awards for a single film.
