| Additional information |
Issued as part of New Zealand's official licensing arrangement with New Line Cinema tied to the Lord of the Rings film trilogy, this coin appeared the same year The Return of the King completed the theatrical run. The Reserve Bank produced a substantial range of denominations and themes across the trilogy's release window, with the Mirror of Galadriel series among the more visually distinctive subsets.
The .925 silver specification matches the standard used across the broader LOTR commemorative program rather than any distinct metallurgical decision for this piece specifically.
