In his quest to amass a secret army and dominion over Rohan, the wizard Saruman bred beneath Orthanc and Isengard, a foul new kind of terror. Quick to mature, strong of limb and will, and unafraid of the light, these new Orcs were the fearsome Uruk-Hai. Saruman's lesser Orc minions, Mordor Orcs from the original line of Orcs twisted by Morgoth into being from the Elves, were charged with raising the new-born Uruk-Hai, and made use of this opportunity to abuse and torment them, until such time as the Uruk-Hai rose against them and fought back. It was a company of Uruk-Hai led by Lurtz, at Amon Hen, that killed Boromir and snatched the Halflings for the desperate run across the plains of Rohan.

The Lord of the Rings Medallions represent the very best in low-relief artistry. Presented with an aged bronze patina, along with a Certificate of Authenticity.
