About this coin
A Numismatic Masterpiece: Where Modern Magic Meets Ancient Tradition.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, The Royal Mint released a stunning series of coins that captured the imagination of the world. However, the example offered here is far beyond a standard "limited edition" release.
The Trial of the Pyx Pedigree
This 2022 1/4oz Gold Proof coin is one of a mere 6 examples hand-selected from the entire production run to undergo the Trial of the Pyx. This 700-year-old judicial ceremony at Goldsmiths' Hall is the ultimate test of a Mint’s integrity, where coins are weighed and measured by a jury of freemen to ensure they meet the highest standards of the realm.
Certified by NGC as a Brilliant Proof with the exclusive "Trial of the Pyx" designation, this coin represents the absolute pinnacle of provenance for the Harry Potter series.

"This is not just a coin; it is a piece of judicial history. To own a Trial of the Pyx coin is to own the gold that was used to guarantee the standards of the British Mint itself."

Can I verify the coin's grade?

What is the population or top pop figure?
The NGC census records how many examples of each coin have been graded at each level. A Top Pop coin means no other example has achieved a higher grade — making it the finest certified specimen in existence for that issue.
Do you offer part exchange?
Yes. We accept all proof coins and graded coins in part exchange, including NGC and PCGS certified coins, boxed gold and silver proofs, and proof sets.
