| Additional information |
Pobjoy Mint produced this piece under license for the Isle of Man, which has long issued an unusually high volume of commemorative crown-sized pieces — many tied to popular culture properties that larger sovereign mints would not touch. The "Harry looks for the correct key" issue references the first Harry Potter film, released in November 2001, capitalizing on a licensing window that Pobjoy moved quickly to exploit.
The Isle of Man's unusually flexible currency legislation allowed Pobjoy to issue legal tender coinage of this kind with minimal bureaucratic friction — something that made the island a favored partner for themed commemorative programs throughout the 1990s and 2000s.
