2020 Niue $2 1-oz Silver Harry Potter Hogwarts Express Proof NGC PF70UC First Releases w/Black Core

All Aboard For the Hogwarts Express Silver Proof!

For non-magical “Muggles,” the train platforms at the King's Cross Train Station are nothing out of the ordinary. But for those attuned to the world of magic, there exists a portal between Platforms 9 and 10 – Platform 9¾ – that transports them to the Hogwarts Express, a train that shuttles students off to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The enchanting train is, of course, the creation of author J.K. Rowling and appears in her Harry Potter book series and films.

Aside from going on the Hogwarts Express ride at Universal Studios theme parks, the fictional train is not a real locomotive that you can purchase a ticket for. But now you can book passage to the Magical World of Harry Potter thanks to this coin that pays tribute to the Hogwarts Express. The second coin in a series dedicated to all things Harry Potter, it’s struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.9% silver. The blazing design shows an image of the Hogwarts Express waiting for students at Platform 9¾ at the King’s Cross Train Station.

In addition, each coin in this magical series was struck at the prestigious New Zealand Mint in gorgeous Gem Proof condition, meaning they were expertly crafted from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields. The detail is so sharp and clear you’ll want to enroll at Hogwarts and catch the next train to make it to the school in time for the next term!

In fact, each coin available in this offer has been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation as being in flawless Proof-70 (PF70) condition, a distinction that means these perfectly-graded proofs will have ZERO imperfections – showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended. In addition, NGC has certified that these poofs are First Releases (FR) coins, a designation that means they were received by NGC or an NGC-approved depository within the first 30 days of their release. Each will also come in an acrylic coin holder with a special black display core.
