TheHarry Potterbooks captured an eager audience thanks to the rich and engaging world they drew readers into and the vivid characters and creatures that inhabited it. It was a triumph of the film adaptations that they captured those details and brought out the charm and personality of magical objects like the Sorting Hat at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The Sorting Hat’s battered design reflected many years spent analyzing the characters and personalities of young wizards and assigning them to a “house,” one of a quartet of in-school clubs that each carried on a founding wizard’s legacy. The Hat’s personality is captured by the 2022 Proof French Harry Potter Sorting Hat Shaped 22.2 Gram Silver Coin.

Obverse

Both sides of the coin show the wide-brimmed and pointy shape of the Sorting Hat, with the obverse side showing the back. It’s overlaid with inscriptions confirming the coin’s face value and its country and date of issue.

Reverse

The reverse side featured the Sorting Hat’s wonderfully expressive “face.” Its broad mouth is open in the act of pronouncing the destiny of a new Hogwarts pupil, as it has done for nearly a thousand years.

History

The enchanted universe ofHarry Potterdemands the very best in minting and engraving technology for bringing its characters to life for a quality collection of pure silver coins. Monnaie de Paris uses a combination of striking and annealing mint techniques, skillful engraving, and a rare enameling technique called grand feu to create pieces with the greatest possible charm and detail, and the results are plain to see with every entry in the Harry Pottercollection.
