Vault Numbers: Secret Meaning?
* One thing I have noticed is that the known numbers of the Grigotts vaults is that the vaults can be interpreted as combinations or numbers that can be added to known "lucky numbers". For example, Vault 713 is a combination of 7 and 13, numbers considered the most lucky and unlucky numbers. This could refer to the potential in the Sorcerer's Stone for both good and evil results.

* Vault 687, Harry's vault:  6, 8, and 7 can be added to a sum of 21, which then can be added to 3, a lucky number in most societies. As well, 21 is the product of 7 and 3, both lucky numbers.

* Vault 713, Nicolas Flamel:  713 is a combination of 7 and 13, numbers considered the most lucky and unlucky numbers. This could refer to the potential in the Sorcerer's Stone for both good and evil results.

* Vault 711, Sirius Black:  7 and 11 are both lucky numbers, though 11 is not usually considered as lucky as 7. This combination is ironic, as Sirius Black did not experience very much luck in his after-school years. --WolfKing1 01:00, 18 April 2007 (UTC)WolfKing1, 8:58 PM, 4/17/07
