Peter Jackson's adaptation of JRR Tolkien's epic trilogy first came out in 2001 and have remained beloved by fans.

Now, this new coin will pay tribute to the films' One Ring, bearing its familiar inscription written in the Black Speech of Mordor: "One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them."

Select editions will also feature an innovative caustic feature, the first applied to a commemorative coin in the Royal Mint's history.

As the website reads: "Get ready to pledge your sword, bow or axe for this epic journey."

Here's how you can buy the new coin today.
