THE SHIRE™ Silver Shilling
One Shilling from The Shire struck in 1/8 troy ounce of .999 pure silver. Each denomination of Shire coinage has 4 variations featuring different trees. This coin is available in four possible trees: pine, elm, willow, and oak. Coin text is inscribed in Tengwar.
This coin from the world of J. R. R. Tolkien is struck from solid .999 silver, measures 2.4 cm in diameter, and weighs 5 grams, or 1/8 of a troy ounce. Coin artwork and engraving by Greg Franck-Weiby.
The coin is treated to look as if it has been handled and circulated within its world. This process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science. Coloring and patinas will vary. No two coins are exactly the same! Coins are struck one at a time in the USA using antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. A colorful description is included with history, translations, and facts about the coins.
Note—Each order comes packed with a handwritten envelope straight from Shire Post Mint. We will make this out to whomever is on the SHIPPING ADDRESS. If you are giving this as a gift and would like a different name on the envelope, please include the recipient's name in the Special Instructions field as you complete your order.
