Leprechaun gold

From Harry Potter Wiki

Leprechauns have the ability to produce gold coins that look and feel authentic as regular coins, certainly in the wizarding community. It has the quality of disappearing after a few hours. Although the coins seem identical to ordinary ones, goblin experts can differentiate them from ordinary coins, as Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley overheard when they visited Gringotts Wizarding Bank in search of one of Lord Voldemort's Horcruxes.

Ludo Bagman paid off bets to Fred and George Weasley at the Quidditch World Cup using Leprechaun gold. Rubeus Hagrid used Leprechaun gold coins in a Care of Magical Creatures class where he was introducing the students to Nifflers.
