| Reverse description | The reverse takes the form of a three-dimensional sculptural representation of the Golden Snitch, the celebrated magical ball from the Harry Potter series. A spherical body, rendered in high relief with swirling feather-like engravings and selective gold plating across its surface, is fitted with a pair of elegantly elongated, naturalistically detailed silver wings extending laterally. The wings exhibit fine feather striations along their length, curving gracefully upward at the tips to evoke the impression of flight. A small clasp or latch detail is rendered at the point where the wings join the sphere. No inscriptions appear on the reverse; the design relies entirely on sculptural artistry to convey its subject. |
