1917年的乔治诉黄金主权被认为是10世纪最稀有的英国硬币之一，与第一次世界大战后英国的经济状态有关。

Brits are being urged to look out for a "fine specimen" of a coin that could now be worth tens of thousands of pounds.

正在敦促英国人寻找一枚硬币的“优质标本”，现在可以价值数万英镑。

The 1917 George V Gold Sovereign is one of the rarest British coins of the 20th century and is linked to the UK's economic state following the First World War.

1917年的乔治诉黄金主权是20世纪最稀有的英国硬币之一，与第一次世界大战后英国的经济状态有关。

Featuring a knight on horseback slaying a dragon on one side, and the eponymously named monarch on the other - this 22 Carat gold coin was designed by Bertram MacKennal and Benedetto Pistrucci and weighs almost 8g and has a diameter of 22.05mm. For reference, the modern-day £1 coin is around 1g lighter and has a diameter of 23.5mm.

由骑马的骑士在一侧杀死了一条龙，而同名的君主则在另一侧杀死了君主 - 这22克拉金币是由Bertram Mackennal和Benedetto Pistrucci设计的，重量差不多8G，直径为22.05mm。作为参考，现代的1英镑硬币约为轻1克，直径为23.5mm。

James Constantinou, a leading expert in pre-loved designer goods and owner of Prestige Pawn, has eight pawn shops across the country and regularly receives a wide range of valuables including old coins. Speaking exclusively to the Mirror, he explained how these coins might be difficult to find for one particular reason.

詹姆斯·康斯坦丁努（James Constantinou）是预先设计的设计师商品的领先专家，也是Prestige Pawn的所有者，在全国各地拥有八家典当店，并定期收到包括旧硬币在内的广泛贵重物品。他专门说出镜子，解释了由于一个特定原因，这些硬币如何难以找到。

"The 1917 George V Gold Sovereign is one of the rarest British coins as any remaining will have survived WWI, and the melting pot when huge numbers of sovereigns were melted to settle massive debts accumulated to the US during the war," the expert said.

专家说：“ 1917年的乔治诉金黄金主权是英国最稀有的硬币之一，因为任何剩下的任何人都将在第一次世界大战中幸存下来，当大量主权人融化以解决战争期间积累的大量债务时，熔炉。”

"This means that in today's market, a fine specimen of the 1917 George V Gold Sovereign can fetch an eye-watering £30,000."

“这意味着，在当今市场上，1917年乔治诉Gold Sovereign的优秀标本可以拿出令人陶醉的30,000英镑。”

James added that while it would be "amazing" to stumble across the ultra-valuable coin - you're more likely to find something like a Kew Gardens' 250th anniversary coin. Minted in 2009, these fetch around £250 - which is still a nice bump to your bank account.

詹姆斯补充说，虽然偶然发现超可价值的硬币将是“惊人的” - 您更有可能找到像Kew Gardens的250周年纪念硬币一样。这些铸造在2009年，这些售价约为250英镑 - 这仍然是您的银行帐户的不错的颠簸。

King George V reigned from 1910 to 1936, and is often credited for modernising the British monarchy. He started the annual Christmas broadcast tradition and established the House of Windsor by changing the name of his Saxe-Coburg-Gotha residence.

乔治五世国王从1910年到1936年统治，并经常因现代化英国君主制而被誉为现代。他开始了一年一度的圣诞节广播传统，并通过更改了他的萨克斯 - 库堡 - 哥萨住所的名称来建立温莎之家。

His son and heir to the throne, Edward VIII infamously abdicated the throne the same year he was sworn in - which led to George VI unexpectedly becoming King. This is the reason why no Edward VIII coins were ever released to the public.

爱德华八世臭名昭著的王位的儿子和继承人在他宣誓就职的同一年臭名昭著，这导致乔治六世出乎意料地成为国王。这就是为什么没有爱德华八世硬币向公众发布的原因。

"Such was the sensitivity surrounding the Abdication that for many years these patterns were locked away and not treated as part of the Museum collection; few people knew what had survived and the existence of the coins became something of a mystery even within the Royal Mint," the Royal Mint Museum states.

“这就是围绕退位的敏感性，多年来，这些模式被锁定了，没有被视为博物馆收藏的一部分；很少有人知道生存的东西，而硬币的存在也成为了一个神秘的事物，即使在皇家薄荷中， “皇家薄荷博物馆说。

"It was not until the retirement of Sir Jack James, Deputy Master from 1957 to 1970, that a sealed cardboard box was retrieved from a safe in his office and found to contain no fewer than 49 coins of Edward VIII. On 5 November 1970, these coins were placed in the Museum."

“直到1957年至1970年的副大师杰克·詹姆斯爵士退休后，从他的办公室的一个保险箱中检索了一个密封的纸板箱，发现不少于1970年11月5日的Edward VIII的49枚硬币。这些硬币被放置在博物馆中。”
