Talk:Dumbledore's Army coin

Could we please change the name of this article to "Dumbledore's Army Galleon's"? it sounds alot more in-universe than "coins", Darth Jadious 13:49, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

I think it's referred to as a coin because they weren't actual Galleons; they were fake ones made by Hermione. "Coins" is also the word used in the interview Rowling gave in which she said that they would be "like badges of medals or honour", but the word was actually used by the person asking the question, rather than her. The Lexicon article on the D.A. refers to them as "fake Galleons". But the Lexicon article on Hermione refers to them as "enchanted coins". I'm fine with leaving this article title as is, or possibly moving it to "Dumbledore's Army Fake Galleons". Oread ^(talk) 15:59, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Master Galleon

How did it come to be that Neville could summon other DA members, did he end up with Harry's old coin? --IBelieveInTheHallows 22:49, 21 April 2009 (UTC)IBelieveInTheHallows

I would assume that it was more along the lines of anyone could change the coins instead of only one coin being able to do so. I may be wrong though. --66.91.111.103 21:08, December 5, 2009 (UTC)

Zacharias Smith

How was he a defector? --BachLynn23 00:09, July 30, 2010 (UTC)

he didn't return in 1997, and didn't stay to help fight in the battle of hogwarts. and he was just unsupportive and negative throughout the entire time. Alumeng 19:54, October 10, 2011 (UTC)

Change the name to "Fake Galleon"

I think we should change the name from "Dumbledore's Army coin" to just "Fake galleon" because they weren't just used by The DA cos in Harry Potter 6 Malfoy & Rosmerta used them. 90.204.20.100 19:47, October 10, 2011 (UTC)

This article is specifically about the coins the DA used, not other uses of coins for communication. While Draco and Rosmerta did use coins to communicate those coins were different than the DA's coins.-Shorty1982 23:10, October 10, 2011 (UTC)

Is there an article on this wiki specifically about the coins Draco and Rosmerta used? 90.204.20.100 14:55, October 11, 2011 (UTC)

I'm in favour of the move. As far as I'm aware there was no difference between the coins used by the DA and the ones used by Draco and Rosmerta. Jayden Matthews 15:07, October 11, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you, Jayden. Oh, Shorty1982, before you go and use the fact that Draco even said to Professor Dumbledore that he got the idea off of the DA, that doesn't mean anything at all. 90.204.20.100 20:27, October 13, 2011 (UTC)

I'm in favour too. 90.204.20.100 is absolutely right about what Draco said to Albus meaning nothing. All we know is, they're b

oth fake galleons, Hermione's and Draco's, so that's what the name should be. 91.225.19.231 08:02, October 17, 2011 (UTC)
