Prior to November of that year, the date on 20p coins would be found on the tail side.

在當年11月之前，將在尾部找到20p硬幣的日期。

However, the Royal Mint switched it so that the date would now be next to the Queen’s head.

但是，皇家造幣廠切換了它，以便日期現在就在女王的頭旁邊。

A mistake in 2008 led to the old format being used on the Queen’s side and the new format being used on tails side.

Five incredibly rare and valuable British coins

五個非常稀有且有價值的英國硬幣

The 50 pence piece has become the most valued and collected coin in the UK, with many collectable designs appearing on its heptagonal canvas.

50便士的作品已成為英國最有價值和收集最多的硬幣，其七角形畫布上出現了許多可收藏的設計。

Its 27.5mm diameter makes it the largest of any British coin, and allows space for decorative pictures.

它的直徑為27.5毫米，使其成為任何英國硬幣中最大的，並為裝飾圖片提供了空間。

It has often been used to celebrate big events over the past 50 years of British history.

在英國歷史的過去50年中，它經常被用來慶祝大型活動。

The rarest coins tend to be of the greatest value, with the mintage (number of coins with each design made) being the fundamental attraction for collectors.

最稀有的硬幣往往具有最大的價值，而鑄造（每種設計的硬幣數量）是收藏家的基本吸引力。

Along with the design, other aspects of the coin which increase value are the condition of the coin and whether it has an error in its design.

與設計一起，硬幣的其他方面增加了價值的條件以及其設計是否有錯誤。

The way in which it is sold can also determine the coin’s value - while some coin collectors will bid vast amounts of money on eBay or at auction, others opt for more robust valuations by selling via a coin dealer.

出售的方式也可以決定硬幣的價值 - 而一些硬幣收藏家將在eBay或拍賣會上競標大量資金，而其他硬幣則通過通過硬幣經銷商出售而選擇了更多可靠的估值。
