| Additional information |
Part of Monnaie de Paris's ongoing licensing arrangement with Warner Bros., this piece belongs to the Harry Potter themed series issued across multiple years. The Flying Ford Anglia — a 1960 Ford Anglia 105E modified with an Invisibility Booster in the novels — became one of the more recognizable set pieces of the franchise, and Monnaie de Paris has leaned heavily into the IP across collector issues of varying metals and finishes.
Billon at .333 fineness places this well below standard silver collector coinage, a deliberate cost-control measure that keeps the series accessible to younger or casual collectors rather than bullion-focused buyers.
