| Additional information |
Part of the official Warner Bros.-licensed Wizarding World series, this miniature fractional gold issue was produced by the New Zealand Mint on behalf of Cook Islands, which has long served as the issuing authority for that facility's collectible programs. The Neville Longbottom release appeared alongside several other character-specific pieces in the same fractional format. At 0.5 g of .9999 gold, the bullion content is largely incidental — the coin functions as licensed merchandise priced on scarcity and franchise recognition rather than metal value.
