| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, diademed and wearing a drop earring, rendered in high relief after the fourth definitive portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, whose initials 'IRB' appear below the truncation. The legend 'SAMOA 2021' curves along the upper rim, flanked by two short incuse lines. The lower field bears the inscriptions '1 kg', 'Ag999', and '25 DOLLARS' flanking the Samoan coat of arms, rendered in fine detail at the base of the portrait. |

| Reverse description | A richly detailed high-relief depiction of Hogwarts Castle from the Harry Potter franchise, its Gothic towers and turrets rising dramatically from a rocky promontory in the lower field. Above the castle, two armoured figures flank a large central heraldic shield bearing the Hogwarts coat of arms, with the four house crests — Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw — arranged at the upper corners. The legend 'HOGWARTS SCHOOL OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY' curves along the upper rim, while the stylised 'Harry Potter' franchise logotype is inscribed in the lower foreground. The antique finish lends the entire composition a dramatic, cinematic quality. |
