The Harry Potter novels created an immersive world full of fun and creative magical touches that made for a setting that felt truly alive. In many ways, the film adaptations that became a blockbuster phenomenon upped the ante of the wizarding world’s sense of unpredictable wonder, with one famous example being the Chocolate Frog. Mentioned in the books as a popular sweet, they became fully animated sweets that could hop like frogs in the films, bringing a touch of whimsy even to the simple act of opening and eating one’s favorite candy. Monnaie de Paris celebrates these candy critters with the 2022 French Harry Potter Chocolate Frog Mini-Medal, now available from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
Designed to capture the fun-filled nature of its subject matter, the 2022 French Harry Potter Chocolate Frog Mini-Medal is also created with the same advanced minting techniques and technologies for which Monnaie de Paris is so well-known. Each item ships in a secure plastic capsule, and is fully insured against even the most remote possibility of loss or damage by Provident Metals. Please note that Nordic Gold is a copper-based alloy with gold color to it. Nordic Gold coins typically have around 89% copper combined with aluminum, zinc, and tin.
Obverse
The logo of Monnaie de Paris is featured on the mini medal’s obverse side. It’s a stylized set of arches framed by 28 stars around the medal’s rim, accompanied by the inscriptions “Monnaie de Paris” and “2022.”
Reverse
Featured on the mini medal’s reverse side is a Chocolate Frog crawling on its own packaging, which carries the inscriptions “Honeydukes” (the magical sweet shop where they are sold) and “70% Finest Croakoa” (the enchanted cocoa that makes animated chocolate frogs possible). At the rim is the inscription “Chocogrenouille.”
History
Chocolate Frogs weren’t just a popular sweet in the wizarding world: they also came with trading cards that featured famous witches and wizards, and that actually proved important to a plot point inHarry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.For the most part, they remained a part of the setting’s “flavor,” so to speak, in the other movies, but they continued to be a beloved element of the franchise for fans. In fact, they were such a popular feature of the Harry Potter films that they generated spin-off products in the real world — including prop replicas and novelty candies from Hasbro — and made appearances in a variety of related media like thePhilosopher’s StoneandPrisoner of Azkabanvideo games.
