The 2013 $1 Elizabeth II (4th Portrait; Legolas Greenleaf) coin from New Zealand features a unique design element - the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II is depicted with a subtle green tint, which is a nod to the green leaves of the tree that Legolas, the character from J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, is known for climbing. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins in the series and makes it a standout among collectors.
