| Reverse description | The reverse features a vivid full-colour depiction of Hogwarts Castle perched dramatically upon a rocky promontory beneath a deep blue nocturnal sky, rendered in a photographic colour application technique. The franchise title HARRY POTTER is inscribed in the characteristic stylised serif lettering across the upper portion of the field, with the date 2020 above it near the rim. The word HOGWARTS appears vertically along the left side in relief against an engraved chequerboard-patterned panel. The copyright notice TM & © WBEI (s19) is inscribed vertically along the right inner border. |

| Additional information |
Samoa has issued licensed pop-culture commemoratives under central bank authority since the early 2000s, contracting production through external mints to serve the collector market rather than circulation. This piece has no meaningful monetary role in Samoa and was never intended to.
The KM#518 reference places it within a long run of similarly structured issues. Silver-plated copper-nickel at this weight targets budget-conscious thematic collectors priced out of sterling silver releases.
