"The Fellowship of the Ring" is the first part of the successful film series and celebrated its world premiere in December 2001. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of The Lord of the Rings, the New Zealand Post has issued this Premium Silver Bullion Coin. The motive shows the famous scene from the film in which Boromir™ holds the broken sword Narsil. The legendary weapon of Elendil broke in the battle of the Last Alliance. With the broken blade, Isildur, Elendil's son, cut the One Ring from Sauron's finger. The fragments of the blade were kept in Rivendell, the place of assembly of Lord Elrond's convened council. On his shoulder the phrase "THE BLADE THAT CUT THE RING FROM SAURON'S HAND" has been engraved. Additionally, the inscriptions "THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING", "20th ANNIVERSARY" and the denomination "ONE DOLLAR" are included in the design. The reverse features the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II as well as the weight, fineness, year of issue and the inscription "MIDDLE EARTH". Boromir™ was tasked by his father, Denethor II, Steward of Gondor, to travel to Rivendell to win the One Ring for Gondor. Appointed by Lord Elrond to represent the Men, he became part of the Fellowship around Frodo™, Gandalf™ and Aragorn™. Boromir™ fell heroically in battle against Sarumans™ orcs while trying to protect the two hobbits Merry™ and Pippin™. The Boromir™ Premium Silver Bullion Coin celebrating the 20th Anniversary of "The Fellowship of the Ring" is limited to only 10,000 pieces worldwide and is delivered in a protective coin capsule.
