Elvish Silver Leaf of Winter Necklace
A Silver Winter Leaf of HOLLIN™
Also known as Eregion (meaning Land of the Holly in Sindarin), Hollin was an Elven Realm of the Ñoldorin Elves during the Second Age. It was located near the West Gate of Moria, or Khazad-dûm. These coins were made by the Ñoldorin Elves while under the rule of Celebrimbor, the great Elven-smith and forger of the Rings of Power. Hollin was later destroyed during the War of the Elves and Sauron.
The Tengwar side translates from Sindarin:
“Star-kindler, O Elbereth! White shining slants down like the Silmarils from the heavens - the radiance of the star-host.”
On the reverse, in Dwarf Runes (Angerthas Moria):
“Under Celebrimbor, lord of Eregion Tegilbor made me in the eleventieth year of the third yen.”
The bilingual inscriptions indicate the Elves and Dwarves in this region maintained amicable relations and traded freely for years during the Second Age. For many Elves, Silver is more valuable even than Gold.

Our Process
Shire Post Mint coins are struck one at a time in West Fork, Arkansas, USA using solid metals, hand-engraved designs, antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. For antiqued coins, the coloring/patina process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science so coins will vary slightly. Our unique packaging includes a description of each coin and translations if applicable.
We collaborate with many artists to create our coins. Learn more about our artists.
This silver leaf on it's silvery chain has not tarnished cos it's invisibly coated, used it for daily wear, no colour change :) but it's great looking!

Thank you so much for this item. Both my husband and i are vivid Tolkien fans. He jokingly calls me "Elf" whenever I suggest a camping or hiking getaway in the woods. And to be fair i have called him a "Dwarf" for his live of caves. To find such a gift with both elven and dwarven script on a silver pendant perfectly is the perfect token for our silver anniversary. Thank you for your artful designs.
This necklace is amazing. I love the inscriptions; wonderful quality, unlike anything else. I feel so fortunate to own this--thank you so much for making such meaningful and beautiful pieces!
This pendant is fairer than 3 strands of hair plucked from our Lady Galadriel’s golden head.
