You have 1.00 Galleons worth of wizarding money.

  • In simplified form: 1 Galleon.
  • That is roughly 5.00 GBP in the real world, based on J.K. Rowling's rate of 5 GBP per Galleon.
  • That could buy roughly 8 Butterbeers at The Three Broomsticks (at about 2 Sickles each).

Next stepThe wizarding currency has no official real-world exchange rate - J.K. Rowling once estimated 1 Galleon at about 5 GBP, but prices in the books suggest the true purchasing power is much higher.
