| Reverse description | The reverse, designed by Ffion Gwillim, presents a richly detailed depiction of the iconic Hogwarts Express steam locomotive advancing at an angle toward the viewer, billowing clouds of steam from its chimney stack. A winged owl with outstretched wings is rendered in relief across the front of the engine, evoking the wizarding world's magical fauna. In the lower left field, a young figure stands on the platform surrounded by trunks and a birdcage, referencing the scene of departure from Platform 9¾. Scattered stars punctuate the right field, along with a stylised full moon rendered in lined relief. The legend HOGWARTS EXPRESS arcs across the upper field, with the inscription 25 YEARS OF MAGIC appearing along the lower exergue. |
