Lord of the Rings coin – level 1

Lord of the Rings coin

22-05-2026 15:00

Britain has a new 50 pence coin. This coin is special because it celebrates 25 years of The Lord of the Rings movies. The coin shows the famous One Ring from the story.

The designer says the ring is a great idea. Everyone knows it quickly. The designer also uses beautiful Elvish writing on the coin. There are two circles of words on the coin. The letters look very nice because they have different lines. The coin looks like it is moving.

There is also another special thing about the coin. When you put light on it, you can see the Eye of Sauron.

Difficult words: coin (metal money), designer (a person who plans and creates how something new will look), circle (a round shape, like a ring).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What can you see when you put light on the coin?
