Celebrate one of the most iconic moments in fantasy cinema with the 2026 France Lord of the Rings Frodo & the One Ring 10 Euro Silver Coin, issued by the renowned Monnaie de Paris (Paris Mint).
Inspired by The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, this collectible silver coin features Frodo Baggins holding the legendary One Ring against the fiery Eye of Sauron.
The design captures the central conflict of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic saga: the struggle to destroy the One Ring and defeat the Dark Lord Sauron.

Coin Design
Obverse – Frodo, the One Ring & Eye of Sauron

The inscription "Le Retour du Roi" (The Return of the King)
The year 2026
Intricate decorative borders inspired by Middle-earth
Detailed engraving of Frodo's clothing, hair, and facial features
The One Ring suspended from its chain
Reverse – French Republic
The reverse displays the 10 EURO denomination, surrounded by the inscription République Française, decorative branches, and geometric patterns symbolizing France.
