在成為英國流通中最稀有的 50 便士硬幣之後，稀有硬幣市場受到了震動。

A NEW King Charles III coin has been valued at up to £85 - we reveal the exact detail you need to spot to get your hands on one.

一枚新的查理三世國王硬幣價值高達 85 英鎊 - 我們為您揭示了獲得一枚硬幣所需注意的具體細節。

The rare coins market has been shaken up after it took the top spot as the rarest 50p coin in UK circulation.

在成為英國流通中最稀有的 50 便士硬幣之後，稀有硬幣市場受到了震動。

After The Sun exclusively revealed in October that the Atlantic Salmon had dethroned the Kew Gardens design as hardest to find in the UK, it was estimated to have tripled in value.

《太陽報》於 10 月獨家報道，大西洋鮭魚取代了英國皇家植物園設計，成為英國最難找到的設計，此後，其價值估計增加了兩倍。

But how much exactly it would be valued at was uncertain - until now.

但到目前為止，它的確切估值是多少還不確定。

It comes as Change Checker unveiled its new eBay Tracker, which takes the last nine sold prices on eBay and gives the median price achieved. 

同時，Change Checker 推出了新的 eBay Tracker，該追蹤器可取得 eBay 上最後九個銷售價格並給出所達到的中位數價格。

It valued the coin at a whopping £85, meaning the coin is worth almost six times more than its original value according to the website.

該網站稱，這枚硬幣的估價高達 85 英鎊，這意味著這枚硬幣的價值幾乎是其原始價值的六倍。

Change Checker said: "We added the Salmon 50p to our eBay Tracker back in June 2024 as it was one of the newest coins to enter circulation.

Change Checker 表示：「我們早在 2024 年 6 月就將 Salmon 50p 加入了我們的 eBay Tracker，因為它是最新進入流通的硬幣之一。

"Back then you could get your hands on one on the secondary market for under £15, however now that we know just how rare it is, it’s selling for around £85 – that’s a 477% increase on average!"

「當時你可以在二級市場上以不到 15 英鎊的價格買到一件，但現在我們知道它有多稀有，它的售價約為 85 英鎊 - 平均上漲了 477%！”

Those wishing to get their hands on the valuable coin should look out for the unique engraving of a salmon jumping out of water.

那些希望獲得這枚價值不菲的硬幣的人應該留意鮭魚躍出水面的獨特雕刻。

The Royal Mint confirmed that 200,000 Atlantic Salmon coins were distributed to banks and post offices late last year, as part of a commemorative series marking the ascension of King Charles III.

英國皇家造幣廠證實，去年底已向銀行和郵局分發了 20 萬枚大西洋鮭魚硬幣，作為紀念國王查理三世登基系列的一部分。

This figure beats the 210,000 Kew Gardens coins minted 15 years ago making the Atlantic Salmon officially the rarest 50p in circulation.

這個數字超過了 15 年前鑄造的 210,000 枚英國皇家植物園硬幣，使大西洋鮭魚正式成為流通中最稀有的 50 便士硬幣。

According to the eBay tracker, the Kew Gardens coin is still valued as the most expensive 50p coin at £145 - but demand for the Atlantic Salmon is on the rise at a much quicker rate.

根據 eBay 追蹤器的數據，邱園硬幣仍被視為最昂貴的 50 便士硬幣，價格為 145 英鎊，但對大西洋鮭魚的需求正在以更快的速度增長。

Since June the Salmon coin has increased by almost £70, while the Kew Gardens coin is actually decreasing in value - down £3 since June.

自 6 月以來，鮭魚幣已經上漲了近 70 英鎊，而英國皇家植物園的硬幣實際上在貶值——自 6 月以來下跌了 3 英鎊。

Other valuable coins are also falling in value such as the rarest Olympic 50p and the Commonwealth £2.

其他有價值的硬幣也在貶值，例如最稀有的奧林匹克 50 便士和英聯邦 2 英鎊。

Royal Mint also revealed that just one in 335 people in the UK have a likelihood of fishing the coin from their change.

英國皇家造幣廠也透露，英國祇有三分之一的人有可能從零錢中撈到這枚硬幣。

Since the announcement, sales online have skyrocketed as eager collectors rush to secure the coin before prices spiral even higher.

自從消息公佈以來，隨著急切的收藏家爭先恐後地在價格進一步上漲之前購買這枚硬幣，網上銷量猛增。

On October 7 one coin sold for £164 with six bidders fighting for the prize.

10 月 7 日，一枚硬幣以 164 英鎊的價格售出，六位競標者競相競得。

Another sold for £147 on December 16 with a whopping 37 bids.

12 月 16 日，另一幅作品以 147 英鎊的價格售出，有 37 人出價。

And one listing currently sits as high as £500 - though there's no guarantee people will actually dish out this much for it.

目前，一處房源售價高達 500 英鎊——儘管不能保證人們真的會為此付出這麼多。

Remember that a coin is only worth as much as someone is willing to buy it for.

請記住，一枚硬幣的價值取決於有人願意購買它的價格。

If you're ever unsure of how much a coin should be sold for, it helps to look at what prices other people are listing.

如果您不確定一枚硬幣應該賣多少錢，看看其他人列出的價格會有所幫助。

You can also run it through Change Checker's Scarcity Index to get a sense of its value.

您也可以透過 Change Checker 的稀缺指數來運行它，以了解其價值。

Rare coins, especially those with low mintages, can fetch hundreds and even thousands of pounds.

稀有硬幣，尤其是那些發行量較低的硬幣，可以賣到數百甚至數千英鎊。

Error coins, produced with manufacturing mistakes, are also highly sought after by collectors.

由於製造錯誤而產生的錯誤硬幣也深受收藏家的追捧。

Some have been known to sell for as much as £1,500 to £2,500.

據了解，有些售價高達 1,500 至 2,500 英鎊。

How to sell a rare coin

如何出售稀有硬幣

If you're looking to sell a rare coin, you can either do this through Facebook, eBay or in an auction.

如果您想出售稀有硬幣，可以透過 Facebook、eBay 或拍賣進行。

You should keep in mind that there are some risks attached when using social media platforms like Facebook.

Some people have been victims to scammers who ask you to pay the money upfront to fund a courier - which never turns up.

It's always better to meet in person when trading valuable items to make sure this doesn't happen.

交易貴重物品時，最好親自見面，以確保這種情況不會發生。

Avoid using payment links and make sure you're meeting in a public and safe spot.

However, this service does come with a fee - so some prefer doing it themselves on eBay.

When using eBay, keep in mind that it's only worth what people are willing to buy it for.

You can look at what other people are selling the coin for to get a sense of what price you should list it as.

For example, if you have a salmon coin in good condition and other people are selling it for more than £85 - then it's probably worth hedging your bets too.

例如，如果您有一枚狀況良好的鮭魚硬幣，而其他人以超過 85 英鎊的價格出售它 - 那麼您也可能值得對沖您的賭注。
