英國「最稀有」的硬幣之一現在是大西洋鮭魚 50 便士，它最近取代了著名的英國皇家植物園 50 便士硬幣，而且不是最難找到的硬幣。

A rare 50p coin has recently sold for a whopping £164 on eBay and you could have one in your spare change.

最近，一枚罕見的 50 便士硬幣在 eBay 上以 164 英鎊的價格售出，您可以在零錢裡換一枚。

One of the UK's "rarest" coins is now the Atlantic Salmon 50p which recently dethroned the famous Kew Gardens 50p coin and is not the hardest one to find.

英國「最稀有」的硬幣之一現在是大西洋鮭魚 50 便士，它最近取代了著名的英國皇家植物園 50 便士硬幣，而且不是最難找到的硬幣。

Due to this, the value of this coin has shot up, according to Change Checker's new eBay Tracker.

根據 Change Checker 的新 eBay Tracker 數據，這枚硬幣的價值因此飆升。

The tracker analyses the last nine sold prices on secondhand sales platforms and gives the median price of them all.

該追蹤器分析了二手銷售平台上最近九個銷售價格，並給出了所有價格的中位數。

The tracker recently valued the Atlantic Salmon at £85 - this is almost six times more than the original value or over 477% more.

追蹤者最近對大西洋鮭魚的估價為 85 英鎊——這幾乎是原始價值的六倍，即高出 477% 以上。

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.

「當時，你可以在二級市場上以不到 15 英鎊的價格買到一件。

"However, now that we know just how rare it is, it’s selling for around £85 - that’s a 477% increase on average!"

“然而，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%！”

The 50p coin features an engraving of salmon, which takes up just over half of the coin on the tail side.

50 便士硬幣上刻有鮭魚圖案，其尾部面積僅佔硬幣的一半多一點。

On the head is the official portrait of King Charles III.

頭上是國王查理三世的官方肖像。

It is one of eight new designs for coins in the UK - first unveiled in 2023 - and all of them feature designs inspired by plants and animals found across the country.

這是英國 2023 年首次推出的八種新硬幣設計之一，所有硬幣的設計靈感均來自英國各地發現的植物和動物。

The 1p depicts a hazel dormouse, the 2p the red squirrel, the 5p an oak tree leaf, the 10p the critically endangered woodland grouse the capercaillie, the 20p a puffin, the 50p a salmon, the £1 sees two bees, and the £2 features a rose for England, a daffodil for Wales, a thistle for Scotland and a shamrock for Northern Ireland.

1p 是榛睡鼠，2p 是紅松鼠，5p 是橡樹葉，10p 是極度瀕危的林地鬆雞，松雞，20p 是海雀，50p 是鮭魚，1 磅是兩隻蜜蜂，1 英鎊是兩隻蜜蜂，1 英鎊是兩隻蜜蜂。

In total, just 200,000 of the 50p were minted by the Royal Mint in 2023 as part of a commemorative series marking the ascension of King Charles III.

2023 年，皇家造幣廠總共鑄造了 20 萬枚 50 便士，作為紀念國王查理三世登基系列的一部分。

This is much lower than the Kew Garden's coin, which had 210,000 coins minted 15 years ago.

這比英國皇家植物園的硬幣要低得多，15 年前，英國皇家植物園鑄造了 21 萬枚硬幣。

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

根據 eBay 追蹤器的數據，英國皇家植物園的硬幣仍然是最昂貴的 50 便士硬幣，售價為 145 英鎊，但對大西洋鮭魚的需求增長得更快。

Since June 2024, the Salmon coin has increased by almost £70, while the Kew Gardens coin has actually decreased in value - down £3.

自 2024 年 6 月以來，鮭魚幣已上漲近 70 英鎊，而邱園幣的價值實際上下降了 - 下跌了 3 英鎊。

On October 7, one 50p Atlantic Salmon coin sold for £164 on eBay, with 51 bidders fighting for it.

10 月 7 日，一枚 50 便士的大西洋鮭魚硬幣在 eBay 上以 164 英鎊的價格售出，有 51 名競標者競相爭奪。

On December 16, another 50p coin sold for £147, with 37 bidding, while another went for £109 after 24 bids.

12 月 16 日，另一枚 50 便士的硬幣在 37 次競價中以 147 英鎊的價格售出，而另一枚在 24 次競價後以 109 英鎊的價格售出。

However, it may not always be as high as this, as one coin recently sold on the platform had 11 bids and went for significantly less at £88 - another went for even less at £84.

然而，價格可能並不總是這麼高，因為最近在該平台上出售的一枚硬幣有11 次出價，其售價明顯低於88 英鎊，而另一枚硬幣的售價甚至更低，為84英鎊。

If you find yourself in possession of a rare coin, you may want to follow others and sell it.

如果您發現自己擁有一枚稀有硬幣，您可能想跟隨其他人並將其出售。

However, selling a coin on eBay is never guaranteed, and a coin is only ever worth what someone is willing to pay for it.

然而，在 eBay 上出售硬幣永遠無法保證，硬幣的價值只有有人願意支付的價格。

If you are a collector, then you should also keep in mind that fake coins can appear online too, so always be wary before handing over any cash.

如果您是收藏家，那麼您還應該記住，假幣也可能出現在網上，因此在交出任何現金之前請務必保持警惕。
