New Zealand - 2021 - The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring 20th Anniversary Set of Mint Stamps
Mint set of six gummed stamps. ($15 total face value)
$1.50 The Journey Begins
In the region of The Shire, the village Hobbiton is home to hobbits Bilbo and Frodo Baggins. Scenes here were filmed near Matamata on the private Alexander Farm, whose rolling hills provided an idyllic backdrop.
$1.50 Hiding from the Black Rider
Taking cover in a hollow among the roots of a tree, Frodo and his friends evade an envoy of Mordor. Surprisingly, this forested scene was filmed not in a remote location but in Wellington city’s Town Belt.
$1.50 The Prancing Pony
As their quest begins, Frodo and his hobbit friends Sam, Pippin and Merry drink ale at the Prancing Pony in Bree, where they first meet Aragorn. The Bree scenes were filmed at former army camp Fort Dorset in Seatoun, Wellington.
$2.80 Flight to the Ford
After Frodo is stabbed, Arwen the elven princess gallops with him on her horse through a prairie and a wood to the safety of a river. The scene was filmed at the Shotover River which flows through the rocky gorge Skippers Canyon, near Queenstown.
$3.60 The Bridge of Khazad-dûm
Perhaps the movie’s most theatrical moment takes place in subterranean labyrinth the Mines of Moria, where Gandalf turns and cries “You shall not pass” to the fire-breathing Balrog.
$4.10 The Gates of Argonath
Journeying along the River Anduin in three boats, the Fellowship passes two gigantic stone statues guarding the northern border of Gondor. This epic scene was filmed in the Kawarau Gorge and Kawarau River near Queenstown.
