| Additional information |
Part of a licensed series issued through Perth Mint under Tuvalu's authority, this coin capitalizes on the peak of Harry Potter franchise fever — the fourth film, *Goblet of Fire*, was still a year away, and the book series had just concluded its sixth installment. Tuvalu's coinage authority has long served as a vehicle for Perth Mint's collector programs, with the island nation's negligible domestic circulation making these effectively bullion-adjacent novelties from the moment of issue.
KM# 119 places it early in what became an extended numismatic licensing arrangement between Warner Bros. and the Perth Mint.
