罕见的 50 分硬币警告澳大利亚人提供 10,000 美元的发薪日

年薪18万澳元的“轻松”工作急需工人：“我们还不够”

Coin collectors have been warned about several online listings that have five-figure price tags when they're only actually worth a fraction of that.

钱币收藏家已经收到警告，网上有一些标价高达五位数的钱币，而实际上它们的价值只是其中的一小部分。

People have been putting up different $1 coins from 1996 and claiming they are super rare because of a "defect".

自 1996 年以来，人们一直在发行不同的 1 美元硬币，并声称由于“缺陷”，它们非常稀有。

One coin was listed on eBay for $10,500, while another had a hefty $20,000 asking price.

其中一枚硬币在 eBay 上的标价为 10,500 美元，而另一枚则要价高达 20,000 美元。

But Mark Nemtsas from The Purple Penny told Yahoo Finance that you should steer clear at all costs.

但 The Purple Penny 的 Mark Nemtsas 告诉雅虎财经，你应该不惜一切代价避开。

"It's just a slightly damaged circulation $1 coin and not an error," he said.

他说：“这只是一枚流通的 1 美元硬币有轻微损坏，并非错误。”

A Yahoo Finance investigation earlier this year exposed the "darker side" of coin collecting, revealing numerous listings online with wildly over-inflated prices.

雅虎财经今年早些时候的一项调查揭露了钱币收藏的“阴暗面”，揭露了网上大量价格严重虚高的物品。

The listings, which were quickly debunked by experts, included a 20-cent coin that was meant to be worth $100, a $2 coin that was listed for $15,000 and a $1 coin that was meant to be worth $20,000.

这些清单很快就被专家揭穿，其中包括一枚 20 美分硬币，原定价值 100 美元，一枚 2 美元硬币，原价 15,000 美元，以及一枚 1 美元硬币，原定价值 20,000 美元。

The listings were all for different $1 coins from 1996, which are meant to be valuable because they were the first $1 coins to be released into circulation.

列出的都是 1996 年以来不同的 1 美元硬币，这些硬币很有价值，因为它们是第一批投入流通的 1 美元硬币。

However, Nemtsas said the coins that are being listed for thousands of dollars are just damaged and not actually rare at all.

然而，内姆察斯表示，标价数千美元的硬币只是遭到损坏，实际上并不稀有。

"There were about 100 million of these coins struck in 1996, so they're not particularly rare," he said.

“1996 年铸造了大约 1 亿枚此类硬币，因此它们并不是特别稀有，”他说。

"They're also not an error, they're just a slightly damaged circulation $1 coin."

“它们也不是错误，它们只是一枚轻微损坏的 1 美元流通硬币。”

If you're ever unsure about the value of a coin, Nemtsas recommends checking with an expert or using a coin price guide to get an accurate estimate.

如果您不确定硬币的价值，Nemtsas 建议咨询专家或使用硬币价格指南来获得准确的估计。

"And if something seems too good to be true, it probably is," he said.

“如果某件事看起来好得令人难以置信，那么它很可能就是真的，”他说。
