Epistemic status: Relies on the testimony of our trusted friend, Professor Quirrell
A thousand of your measly tokens pale in comparison to a single Quirrell point. - Quirinus Quirrell
Harry and Hermione each had, like, 200 Quirrell points each, each of which was apparently worth at least 1000 US Dollars. $400,000 ≈ £300,000 ≈ 6,000 galleons. That’s a whole 10% of Harry’s debt to Lord Malfoy. I don’t really know what “pale in comparison” means, but it sure sounds like an order of magnitude. This important source of money is entirely ignored by every character in the story!
