A limited-edition coin featuring a leaping salmon and King Charles III has become the rarest 50p coin in circulation, new figures from The Royal Mint have revealed.

皇家造币厂的新数字显示，限量版硬币以跳跃的鲑鱼和国王查尔斯三世成为流通中最稀有的50p硬币。

The coin - which is part of a series highlighting the King’s passion for the natural world and sustainable living and was released in November as the first of eight new coin designs - is one of the most sought-after by collectors.

这款硬币是一系列的一部分，介绍了国王对自然世界和可持续生活的热情，并于11月作为八种新硬币设计中的第一个发行 - 是收藏家最受欢迎的一项。

It is part of a wider coin series that began in 2021 to highlight the beauty of the British Isles and its wildlife.

它是一部更广泛的硬币系列的一部分，该系列始于2021年，旨在突出不列颠群岛及其野生动植物的美丽。

While the coin is widely available and can be found in shops, cafes and other establishments throughout the country, only a small number of the coins were made, and they are highly prized by collectors.

虽然硬币可广泛使用，并且可以在全国各地的商店，咖啡馆和其他机构中找到，但仅制造了少量硬币，并且受到收藏家的高度评价。

Wild populations of Atlantic salmon are affected by environmental factors like river pollution, habitat loss, overfishing and river heating due to lack of tree cover and climate change, but the fish can still be found in clean rivers in Scotland, Wales, and North and South West England.

大西洋鲑鱼的野生种群受到环境因素的影响，例如由于缺乏树木覆盖和气候变化而导致的河流污染，栖息地丧失，过度捕捞和河流供暖，但鱼类仍然可以在苏格兰，威尔士以及英格兰西南部的干净河流中发现。

Announcing the mintage figures in October at the British Numismatic Convention, which brings together coin collectors from across the country, Rebecca Morgan, Director of Commemorative Coin at The Royal Mint, said: "The releasing of mintage figures is an eagerly anticipated event among the coin collecting community - and this year is particularly exciting as we reveal the Atlantic Salmon as the rarest 0p in circulation.

皇家造币厂纪念硬币的总监丽贝卡·摩根（Rebecca Morgan）在10月份在英国的数值大会上宣布了铸币数字，该公约将硬币收藏家汇集在一起​​。

“For the first time in 15 years, the highly collectable Kew Gardens 50p loses its top spot as the rarest in circulation with the Atlantic Salmon 50p splashing its way to number one.

“这是15年来的第一次，高度可收藏的钥匙花园50便士以最稀有的流通，大西洋鲑鱼50p溅到了第一名。

“2023 marked pivotal changes for the nation’s coinage, including the introduction of coins celebrating King Charles III’s coronation entering circulation. Finding these special designs, like the Atlantic Salmon, in your change is a win for all collectors.”

“ 2023年标志着该国造币的关键变化，包括引入庆祝查尔斯三世国王加冕典礼的硬币。在您的变化中找到这些特殊设计，例如大西洋鲑鱼，这是所有收藏家的胜利。”
