Monnaie de Paris launched its Harry Potter series in 2021 under licensing from Warner Bros., producing tiered issues in base metal through high-karat gold — the 3g .999 pieces sitting at the upper end of that range. The Quidditch release was among the most commercially contested of the set, selling out through the official web store within hours of opening.
French law requires legal tender face values on all Monnaie de Paris collector issues regardless of bullion content, making the 250-euro denomination essentially nominal — the gold value and collector premium exceed it by a significant multiple.
