| Reverse description | A full-colour depiction of Hogwarts Castle dominates the central and lower fields, rendered in warm ochres and deep purples with intricate Gothic towers, spires, battlements, and gnarled trees. The uncoloured upper field features scattered five-pointed stars in relief against a plain background, alongside a striated circular motif to the left representing a moon or celestial body. The inscription 'HOGWARTS' arches across the upper border in serif lettering, while '25 YEARS OF MAGIC' is inscribed in smaller lettering along the lower left field. |

| Additional information |
Part of the Royal Mint's ongoing Harry Potter licensing series, this issue continues a program that began in 2022 and spans multiple denominations and characters. The Hogwarts design is one of several releases in the set, a commercial arrangement rather than a commemorative in any traditional sense — the Royal Mint has leaned heavily into pop culture licensing since the mid-2010s as collector revenue increasingly subsidizes operations.
