A Silver Winter Leaf of Hollin
Also known as Eregion — meaning Land of the Holly in Sindarin — Hollin was a Ñoldorin Elven Realm of the Second Age, located near the West Gate of Moria. These coins were minted by the Ñoldorin Elves under Celebrimbor, the great Elven-smith and forger of the Rings of Power. Hollin was later destroyed in the War of the Elves and Sauron.
The Tengwar inscription 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 reflect the amicable relations and free trade between Elves and Dwarves of this region during the Second Age. For many Elves, silver is more precious than gold.
