他说：“这就是为什么你应该经常检查你的 2015 年 2 英镑硬币。

“Anytime you see this coin check the date and then do this little check to see if you have an error. You may have a rotation error on your hands.”

“每当你看到这枚硬币时，请检查日期，然后做这个小检查，看看是否有错误。你的手上可能存在旋转错误。”

He explained that you should place your thumb below the date on the tail side of the coin, and your forefinger above the P at the top of the face.

他解释说，您应该将拇指放在硬币尾部的日期下方，将食指放在正面顶部的 P 上方。

You should then rotate the coin to the heads side, and if it is a normal coin the Queen will be facing to the right.

然后你应该将硬币旋转到正面，如果是普通硬币，女王将面向右侧。

If she isn’t, then you could have a much more valuable coin on your hands.

如果她不是，那么你手上可能有一枚更有价值的硬币。

He explained: “If you can find a 2015 coin where she is looking any other way you have found a rotation error.

“This coin on the market will go for anywhere between £10 and £25 depending on the condition.

“这枚硬币在市场上的售价在 10 到 25 英镑之间，具体取决于状况。

“Check your 2015s because your £2 could be worth way more, making you a quick profit.”

“检查你的 2015 年，因为你的 2 英镑可能更值钱，让你快速获利。”

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.

最稀有的硬币往往具有最大的价值，其发行量（每种设计的硬币数量）是对收藏家的基本吸引力。

除了设计之外，硬币增值的其他方面还包括硬币的状况以及设计是否存在错误。

出售方式也可以决定硬币的价值 - 虽然一些硬币收藏家会在 eBay 或拍卖会上出价大量资金，但其他人则选择通过硬币经销商出售来获得更稳健的估值。
