Coins with limited mintage are often in circulation, so it's always best to check your change for anything unusual before spending it.
Four old coins that could be worth a small fortune without you even realising it
THERE'S no reason why you shouldn't check your rare coin collection on a daily basis.
Some designs are worth a mega fortune, whether it's the "rarest" 50p coin in circulation or a £2 featuring the Queen's head which could sell for £1,000.
Now it's not just the current dimes which are worth looking out for in your stash.
According to TikTok user @CoinCollectingWizard, who boasts 207,000 followers, there are four old pieces that could hold a significant value without you even realising it.
So do you have any of these?
In a video where he warned people to never clean their coins, he detailed the 1949 Brass Three Pence.
He said: "This has a mintage of 464,000 which can fetch between £9 and £700, depending on the condition."
Meanwhile seconds later, he turned his attention to another design and added: "The 1905 Half Crown has a mintage of 166,008 you could easily grab anywhere between £450 and £10,000, depending on the condition.
"The 1854 Four Pence Grout has just 11,880 ever minted. This has a value of £230 to £2,000.
"Next we have the 1851 One Shilling, with only 470,071 made, this can sell between £100 and £2,000."
After detailing the coins, he told collectors to keep an eye out.
The post garnered hundreds of likes and numerous comments since it was posted.
One said: "Do not upset the wizard."
While another added: "I have many coins from the UK."
How to find a rare coin in your wallet:
* Coins with limited mintage are often in circulation, so it's always best to check your change for anything unusual before spending it.
* You should also look for coins in places which are not often occupied, like abandoned houses and beneath bridges.
* Using a metal detector could also help you strike gold after we revealed the rarest coins to ever be found in the dirt.
* It's also worth joining a coin swap community and hiring an expert who could value your gems for you.
* Alternatively, make sure you have a glance at auctions or even eBay as some of the rarest coins are usually selling there. We've seen quirky designs flog for hundreds and even thousands online.
