At least 180 of them somewhere, lol. I'd love to have a piece with Tom's name on it if it exists.

It's definitely my collection's current showcase piece. I'm trying to collect all the Tom Riddle-related things.

I saw some coins recently on ebay and bought them...seemed to go cheaper than other prop pieces...any reason why??

also, I couldn't tell if the cards were supposed to be like that on top or if they were damaged...either way, I already bought it on ebay...

I remember buying a few boxes of that product. I think those coin cards were one per box?

Just curious if anyone else keeps a best props list. Maybe like the best 5-10.

And they weren't props. Just manufactured coins, to be used just in these cards.

Much like what Topps does with medallions and other made up things to put into Star Wars or Stranger Things inserts.

The props sell better, as they were used in the making of the movie. You have a piece of something that was actually on set, and maybe even touched by an actor(s) or could be seen on screen.

Where as these coins were just mass produced to be put into these cards.

I've never seen a best prop list published anywhere, but happy to get one started if you are interested! I'd say I have 95% of all the prop cards, there are a few rare ones that have alluded me - and there are tons of unique variants out there that I've seen in passing, but I'm sure there's a few lucky collectors that have some variants that have never made it on the internet.

I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Personally, I’d love to buy a sorcerors stone, a 9 3/4 ticket and each of the rare wand cards.

3. the hermoine PoA (first auto)
4. The GOF quad
5. The Harry/draco dual auto

The dual was the last of the five I grabbed. Had to get it raw unlike the others. Glad to have it encased now.
There’s an Azkaban Watson at auction on eBay now, but it’s already very pricey.

I think the Harry/Sirius dual from Memorable Moments 2 would make my top 5 auto list.

2 big name actors, big fan of Sirius, classic OOTP tapestry scene image. It's listed as an Ultra Rare and you almost never see the card on the market. One of those cards I'll probably never add due to price.

I’ve got an extra if you need it.

From a combo perspective, it’s right there. Aesthetically, it’s the weakest of the sets. But truly, it’s a very rare one and stellar combo.

I believe Gary oldman signed about 300 cards total across all three of his cards in existence, so very happy to have that one.

The whole of the HP community is watching it. First one to sell at auction this year. Hope it stays low. Doubt it will. Haha.

I was asked to do the voiceover for a Dual Harry/draco at the Pwcc weekly auction. Think it ended up really cool. Check out the post in the IG link below.

Appreciate that. 95% of the credit goes to our design team tho. They’re amazing. I’m just the voice and the information guy.

Looks like it closed at a very respectable $4320. Not bad!

I’d love it if we get to see more of the big HP cards at auction. Right now, between Pwcc, ebay and the rest of the auction houses, we only get an average of 1-2 per month.

Very respectable, great job!

Have you seen the auctions going on for the graded Daniel Radcliffe/Gary Oldman and the Emma Watson cards? Both are beautiful cards!

Sorry! Just saw this. Great cards.

I was asked to do audio for another Pwcc Harry Potter grail that ends this weekend. Thought those of you following this thread might enjoy.

There aren’t a lot of actors who have put together a run like Pattinson has these past 17 years.
