Chibi is a Japanese slang term that refers to an atypical style of caricature drawings. In this case, animated characters are created that have short, chubby bodies and features, but oversized heads. You can see this in the shaped coins of the Lord of the Rings Chibi Series as each characters head makes up nearly half the shape of the silver coins.

Obverse

On the obverse of 2021 Niue Chibi Lord of the Rings Samwise Gamgee Shaped 1 oz Silver Coins is Queen Elizabeth II.
