French Mint 2022 10 Euros Harry Potter et Dumbledore - Silver BE 2021 BE ( belle épreuve)

This 10 euro silver coin was issued by the Monnaie de Paris in 2022, as part of its collection dedicated to the world of Harry Potter. It belongs more specifically to the series devoted to the four Houses of Hogwarts, namely Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin, the four main divisions of the fictional school of witchcraft and wizardry created by J.K. Rowling.

Struck in 999‰ silver, this coin features a particularly high metal purity. It has a weight of 22.2 grams and a diameter of 37 millimetres. It is produced in Belle Épreuve (BE) quality, which corresponds to a carefully crafted finish characterised by mirror-like fields and frosted reliefs, achieved through a specific striking process.

The coin originates from workshop A of the Monnaie de Paris and was struck with a limited mintage of 5,000 pieces, making it a restricted-distribution issue. Its face value is 10 euros, legal tender in France.

The iconography of this coin draws from the visual universe of the Harry Potter saga, highlighting the symbols and emblems associated with the four Houses of Hogwarts. Each house has its own heraldic attributes — the lion of Gryffindor, the badger of Hufflepuff, the eagle of Ravenclaw and the serpent of Slytherin — which form a rich and easily recognisable symbolic repertoire for fans of the franchise.

This issue is part of the Monnaie de Paris tradition of collaborating with major international cultural franchises to produce thematic numismatic series intended for collectors.
