查理三世國王 50 便士硬幣在 eBay 上以 1200 英鎊的價格被拍賣後，在諾維奇以 2.50 英鎊的合理價格上市

該硬幣是查理三世國王統治時期第一枚進入流通的硬幣，估計已通過郵局分發了 490 萬枚硬幣

A King Charles III 50p coin which was listed on eBay for £1,250 - nearly 2,500 times its face value - was actually circulated just three years ago in 2022. But now an example of the coin has been found on eBay in Norwich for as little as £2.50 - a 500 times cheaper asking price.

一枚查理三世國王50 便士硬幣在eBay 上掛牌售價為1,250 英鎊（幾乎是其面值的2,500 倍），實際上僅在三年前的2022 年才流通。了一枚該硬幣的樣品，價格僅2.50 英鎊——要價便宜 500 倍。

And the Norwich pricing is rather more accurate to its actual rarity.

諾維奇的定價更準確地反映了其實際的稀有性。

But this high figure is easily overshadowed by the circulation of all-time rare 50p coins such as Kew Gardens which only ever had 210,000 copies minted.

但這高數字很容易被歷史上罕見的 50 便士硬幣的流通量所掩蓋，例如英國皇家植物園 (Kew Gardens) 硬幣的發行量僅為 210,000 枚。

It comes as resellers attempt to take advantage of avid coin collectors following the growth in popularity of the hobby by hiking up prices that few if any are willing to pay.

隨著這種愛好越來越受歡迎，經銷商試圖利用狂熱的錢幣收藏家的優勢，提高價格，但很少有人願意支付。

On the King Charles III coin, a spokesman for coin-collecting website Change Checker said: "The coin at the top of the 50p Scarcity Index is the Kew Gardens 50p – just 210,000 entered circulation in 2009 and they still over 13 years later fetch around £100 on secondary market sites.

關於查理三世國王硬幣，硬幣收集網站Change Checker 的發言人表示：「50 便士稀缺指數中排名靠前的硬幣是英國皇家植物園50 便士——2009 年只有210,000 枚進入流通，但13 年多後，它們的價格仍然在左右。

"The value of the King Charles III 50p depends on what someone is prepared to pay in the future – that’s part of the joy of collecting."
