If you've got a collection of spare change gathering dust at home, it might be worth giving it a second glance.

如果您收集了一系列的備用零錢在家裡聚集灰塵，那麼可能值得一看它。

Coin experts have highlighted a unique British coin that could potentially fetch a tidy sum. The distinctive gold £2 coin isn't exactly ancient, having been minted a mere 13 years ago in 2012. However, its historical significance is what makes it so special, commemorating a global event centred around London.

硬幣專家強調了一種獨特的英國硬幣，可能會獲得一筆可觀的款項。獨特的黃金2英鎊硬幣並不完全古老，在2012年僅13年前被鑄造出來。但是，其歷史意義使其如此特別，紀念以倫敦為中心的全球活動。

"Struck to commemorate the transition of the Olympic Games from London to Rio de Janeiro, the 2012 Olympic Games Handover £2 coin symbolises the passing of the Olympic flag from one host city to another," the Royal Mint explains.

皇家薄荷解釋說：“紀念從倫敦到里約熱內盧的奧林匹克運動會的過渡，2012年奧運會的交換£2硬幣象徵著奧運會旗幟從一個東道主城市傳遞到另一個東道國。”

"The reverse design, created by Jonathan Olliffe, depicts a baton being passed between two hands, with the flags of the UK and Brazil joined in motion.

“由喬納森·奧利夫（Jonathan Olliffe）創建的反向設計描繪了一輛在兩隻手之間通過的接力棒，英國和巴西的旗幟也加入了運動。

"Like its predecessor, the coin carries the edge inscription 'I CALL UPON THE YOUTH OF THE WORLD'."

“像它的前身一樣，硬幣都帶有邊緣銘文'我呼籲世界的青年'。”

In 2012, London became the first city to host the Olympic Games thrice, having previously done so in 1908 and 1948. The games saw more than 10,000 athletes vying for glory across 26 sports at the newly built Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford.

2012年，倫敦成為第一個舉辦奧運會三次舉辦的城市，此前曾在1908年和1948年進行過比賽。奧運會在斯特拉特福德（Stratford）的新建的伊麗莎白女王伊麗莎白·奧林匹克公園（Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park）中，有10,000多名運動員爭奪26種體育運動的榮耀。

When the time came to 'handover' the games to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, a limited run of just 1,200 gold £2 coins were minted to mark the occasion, as per MJ Hughes Coins.

按照MJ Hughes Coins的說法，當時將奧運會“移交”奧運會到巴西里約熱內盧的里約熱內盧，只有1200英鎊的2枚硬幣是鑄造的，以紀念這一場合。

This is partly why they are considered so valuable, with coin traders at Bullion By Post and Chards listing gold editions at £1,558 and £1,478, respectively.

這就是為什麼它們被認為如此有價值的部分原因，郵政和小盤將黃金版本分別為1,558英鎊和1,478英鎊的黃金版。

"The 2012 Olympic Handover to Rio £2 coin was issued to mark the handover from London to the next Olympic Games host, Rio de Janeiro," Chards writes in regards to the '2012 UK Coin £2 Gold Proof Olympic Handover to Rio'.

Chards寫道：“ 2012年向里約熱內盧2幣交換了2枚硬幣，以標記從倫敦到下一屆奧運會主持人里約熱內盧的交接。”

"The 2012 Olympic Handover £2 coin was also produced in the following finishes: uncirculated, brilliant uncirculated in a presentation folder, silver proof and silver proof piedfort."

“ 2012年的奧林匹克移交£2硬幣也在以下飾面中生產：在演示文件夾中未流通，明亮的未流通，證明銀色和銀色的piedfort。”

Despite these impressive valuations, it's important to remember that a coin's value is significantly affected by its condition.

儘管有這些令人印象深刻的估值，但重要的是要記住，硬幣的價值受到其狀況的顯著影響。

Chris Yang, Co-founder of Coins Value, previously told the Daily Star: "Coins in perfect 'mint' condition are worth far more than their well-worn, damaged, and poor-condition counterparts. Sometimes a minor difference in grade translates to hundreds, maybe thousands in value."

硬幣價值的聯合創始人克里斯·楊（Chris Yang）先前告訴《每日星報》：“處於完美的'薄荷'條件下的硬幣遠遠超過了他們破舊，損壞和較差的條件對應物。有時，等級的較小差異會翻譯成數百，可能數千個價值。”

In addition to this, he advised that it is 'best practice' to retain rare coins, unless there is an immediate need for cash.

除此之外，他建議保留稀有硬幣是“最佳實踐”，除非立即需要現金。

"The better issues of these important coins gain in value over time," he continued. "The prices of these scarce coins are subject to some uncertainty based on alterations in the overall market and economy.

他繼續說：“隨著時間的流逝，這些重要硬幣的價值增長了更好的問題。” “這些稀缺硬幣的價格基於整體市場和經濟的變化，因此會遭受一些不確定性。

"When selling, shop around various dealers and obtain the best price. An auction house is considered to achieve the maximum value for really spectacular pieces. Be prepared to pay a 10-20% commission on the selling price.

“出售時，請在各種經銷商周圍購物並獲得最優惠的價格。拍賣行被認為是為了實現真正壯觀的物品的最大價值。準備以售價為10-20％的佣金。

"...Remember, the thrill of coin collecting isn't always about striking gold; it's about connecting with history and uncovering hidden treasures. Your old coin jar might hold more than just spare change – it could be a portal to a fascinating past.
