錢幣收藏家呼籲檢查口袋裡是否有三枚價值超過 3,000 英鎊的稀有硬幣

一位專家提醒英國的硬幣收藏家留意三種特定的硬幣，這些硬幣的總價值可能超過 3,000 英鎊。

Coin collectors in the UK have been urged to keep an eye out for three specific coins that, in combination, could fetch over £3,000.

英國的硬幣收藏家被敦促密切關註三種特定的硬幣，它們的總價值可能超過 3,000 英鎊。

Taking to the social media platform TikTok, the specialist known as the Coin Collecting Wizard explained: "You could become rich if you have any of these coins in your pocket. Come dive in this video with me and let me show you why."

這位被稱為“硬幣收集奇才”的專家在社交媒體平台TikTok 上解釋道：“如果你口袋裡有這些硬幣，你就會變得富有。跟我一起觀看這段視頻，讓我告訴你原因。

He first pointed out a £2 coin from 2014 depicting Lord Kitchener, which marks 100 years since WWI began. To strike gold, he advised finding a rare error coin missing the "two pounds" inscription on its tails side.

他首先指出了一枚 2014 年發行的 2 英鎊硬幣，上面刻著基奇納勳爵，紀念第一次世界大戰爆發 100 週年。為了開採黃金，他建議找到一枚罕見的錯誤硬幣，其尾部缺少「兩磅」銘文。

"First up, we have this £2 coin from 2014. This is known as the Lord Kitchener coin but it isn't the regular one you need to look for. The rare error version without ‘two pounds’ on the obverse can be worth about £1,000," he elaborated.

「首先，我們有這枚2014 年的2 英鎊硬幣。這枚硬幣被稱為基奇納勳爵硬幣，但它不是您需要尋找的常規硬幣。正面沒有「兩英鎊」字樣的罕見錯誤版本可能值得購買。

Furthermore, he urged enthusiasts to search for a 50p piece released to celebrate the 2012 London Olympics, bearing a high jump athlete selected through a Blue Peter competition.

此外，他還敦促愛好者尋找一張為慶祝 2012 年倫敦奧運會而發行的 50 便士作品，上面有一位透過 Blue Peter 比賽選出的跳高運動員。

If you stumble upon a 50 pence coin from 2009 it could fetch around £250.

如果你偶然發現一枚 2009 年的 50 便士硬幣，它的價格可能約為 250 英鎊。

"This is a 50 pence coin part of the 2012 Olympic set with many designs from that year that you can find in your change," he explained.

「這是一枚 2012 年奧運硬幣的 50 便士硬幣，裡面有許多當年的設計，你可以在零錢中找到，」他解釋道。

"But if you find this athletics coin with a date of 2009, instead of the usual 2011, then you have found a rare first edition of this coin that was part of a competition by Blue Peter. £250 pounds for this one."

「但是，如果您發現這枚運動硬幣的日期是2009 年，而不是通常的2011 年，那麼您就發現了這枚硬幣的罕見第一版，它是Blue Peter 競賽的一部分。這枚硬幣售價250 英鎊。

He also shed light on another Olympic coin potentially worth a staggering £2,000.

他還透露了另一枚奧運硬幣的價值可能高達 2,000 英鎊。

"Here is another 50 pence from the 2011 Olympic set, and is known as the aquatics 50p," he continued.

「這是 2011 年奧運會的另外 50 便士，被稱為水上運動 50 便士，」他繼續說道。

This coin features the image of a person swimming. The original design, with waves appearing to pass over their face, is the one you want.

這枚硬幣上有一個人游泳的圖案。最初的設計，波浪似乎掠過他們的臉，就是你想要的。

"The original design of this coin had lines over the swimmer's face, just like this example below, until the Royal Mint changed the design, so the swimmer's face was more clear without the lines. If you are lucky enough to find this exact 50 pence, then you are now £2,000 happier," he added.

「這枚硬幣最初的設計是在游泳者的臉上有線條，就像下面這個例子，直到皇家造幣廠改變了設計，所以游泳者的臉沒有了線條更加清晰。如果你足夠幸運，找到這枚完全相同的50 便士，那麼你現在就幸福了 2,000 英鎊，」他補充道。
