British coin and banknote minter Royal Mint has revealed that famous wizard Harry Potter will appear on a series of coins. UKIncluding 50 cents.
Writer J.K. The celebration marks the phenomenal success of the first book of the wizard, which tells the adventures of the universe created by Rowling.
“The Royal Mint is launching a coin collection to celebrate Harry Potter’s 25th anniversary at the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry,” the ministry said in a statement on Thursday.
The coin series consists of four pieces. Art will feature a portrait of the famous wizard with a round mirror, the Hogwarts Express train, Professor Albus Dumbledore and the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Includes an optical effect that mimics a “lightning bolt” impact when coins spin in light. This “magical” effect is achieved with a sophisticated laser that allows parts to be protected and authenticated, specifying the company.
Published in 1997, the seven-volume series follows the adventures of young wizard Harry Potter at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and his path of struggle against the villainous Lord Voldemort, who seeks immortality.
Sales of Saga’s books reach hundreds of millions of dollars, while eight films have sold into the billions.
The pieces in the collection presented by the Royal Mint this Thursday include two pieces stamped with portraits of Queen Elizabeth II, who died last month, and another two pieces with the official portrait of King Charles III, according to the same statement.
