堪萨斯州 25 美分错误的银币和精制银币的价值可能超过 25 美分

Coin Trackers 保留了一份美国硬币铸造清单，列出了堪萨斯州 25 美分硬币的五种错误设计，这些设计对收藏家来说具有价值，或者在拍卖会上吸引出价。

Have you ever wondered if the Kansas state quarter in your pocket is worth more than its advertised for?

您有没有想过您口袋里的堪萨斯州25美分硬币是否比其广告上的价值更高？

Kansas, like every state, has its very own quarter featuring iconic symbols like a bison and sunflowers produced by the U.S. Mint as part of its 50 State Quarters program. The Kansas state quarter was first issued in 2005 and has been in mass circulation ever since.

与每个州一样，堪萨斯州也有自己的 25 美分硬币，其特色是美国造币厂生产的野牛和向日葵等标志性符号，这是其 50 个州 25 美分硬币计划的一部分。堪萨斯州 25 美分硬币于 2005 年首次发行，此后一直大量流通。

Coin Trackers, which keeps a list of minted U.S. coins, names five error designs for the Kansas state quarter that hold value with collectors or that attract bids at auction. The U.S. Mint, in most cases, recycles error coins before they leave a production facility but, on rare occasions, these make it into circulation. Error quarters you might find for Kansas include the following:

Coin Trackers 保留了一份美国硬币铸造清单，列出了堪萨斯州 25 美分硬币的五种错误设计，这些设计对收藏家来说具有价值，或者在拍卖会上吸引出价。在大多数情况下，美国造币厂会在错误硬币离开生产设施之前对其进行回收，但在极少数情况下，这些硬币会进入流通。您可能会发现堪萨斯州的错误季度包括以下内容：

According to Coin Trackers, the Kansas state quarter is worth around $0.50 in G4 condition and up to $12 in mint condition. Silver proof state quarters are also worth around $12.

根据 Coin Trackers 的数据，堪萨斯州 25 分硬币在 G4 状态下的价值约为 0.50 美元，在全新状态下的价值高达 12 美元。精制银质 25 美分硬币也价值 12 美元左右。

Matthew Nichols, owner of Jayhawk Coins, Games & More in Topeka, cautions those who are looking to sell off a potential collector’s item or who think they have found something that is truly rare. He said looking for a rare coin is “kind of a rat race” and that he receives requests to evaluate items like state quarters on a regular basis with few turning out to be worth anything more than $0.25.

托皮卡 Jayhawk Coins, Games & More 店主马修·尼科尔斯 (Matthew Nichols) 警告那些想要出售潜在收藏品或认为自己发现了真正稀有物品的人。他说，寻找稀有硬币是“一场激烈的竞赛”，他定期收到评估诸如州硬币之类的物品的请求，但很少有硬币的价值超过 0.25 美元。

People are encouraged to do some online research or consult collector’s guides when they think they’ve found something worthwhile. Auction-style websites like eBay can also give people a benchmark to use when trying to figure out if they’ve found a rare coin by checking to see what other quarters have sold for in the past.

当人们认为找到了有价值的东西时，我们鼓励他们进行一些在线研究或查阅收藏指南。像 eBay 这样的拍卖网站也可以为人们提供一个基准，让人们通过查看其他硬币过去的售价来判断是否找到了稀有硬币。

“Generally speaking, every error I’ve looked up has been $5 or $10,” Nichols said. “Does it have value? Yes. Does it have significant value? No.”

“一般来说，我查到的每个错误的金额都是 5 或 10 美元，”Nichols 说。 “它有价值吗？是的。它有重要的价值吗？不。”

Nichols said people can also consult experts in the collection field such as those found at his business or a local numismatist. Sources like these can help people get a better idea of how much their coin is worth, if anything.

尼科尔斯说，人们还可以咨询收藏领域的专家，例如他公司的专家或当地的钱币学家。此类来源可以帮助人们更好地了解他们的硬币的价值（如果有的话）。

“We’ll be happy to take a look at one and verify if it is worth anything,” Nichols said. “The chances of you having a valuable one are very slim.”

“我们很乐意看一看并验证它是否有价值，”尼科尔斯说。 “你拥有一件有价值的东西的机会非常渺茫。”

Kansas is not the only state to have errors in its quarter design. States like Wisconsin, with its “high” and “low” leaf designs, can also be turned into collector’s items or be sold for a value higher than $0.25.

堪萨斯州并不是唯一一个在季度设计中出现错误的州。像威斯康星州这样的州，以其“高”和“低”的叶子设计，也可以变成收藏品或以高于 0.25 美元的价格出售。
