敦促人们寻找一枚稀有的2英镑硬币，可以为您带来一小笔钱。

The unusual gold £2 piece was minted only 13 years ago in 2012. Yet, it is historically important to Britain and marks a global event.

不寻常的黄金2英镑仅在13年前在2012年才铸造出来。然而，这对英国来说历史上很重要，标志着全球活动。

The Royal Mint says: "Struck to commemorate the transition of the Olympic Games from London to Rio de Janeiro, the 2012 Olympic Games Handover £2 coin symbolises the passing of the Olympic flag from one host city to another. The reverse design, created by Jonathan Olliffe, depicts a baton being passed between two hands, with the flags of the UK and Brazil joined in motion.

皇家造币厂说：“为纪念奥运会从伦敦到里约热内卢的过渡，2012年的奥林匹克运动会移交了2英镑，象征着奥运会旗帜从一个东道主城市传递到另一个东道国。反向设计。乔纳森·奥利里夫（Jonathan Olliffe）描绘了一只警棍在两只手之间通过，英国的旗帜和巴西也加入了运动。

"Like its predecessor, the coin carries the edge inscription 'I CALL UPON THE YOUTH OF THE WORLD'." In 2012, London made history as the first city to host the Olympic Games three times, having done so already in 1908 and 1948, reports the Mirror.

“像它的前身一样，硬币都带有边缘铭文'我呼吁世界的青年'。”据《镜报》报道，在2012年，伦敦成为第一个举办奥运会三次的城市，这是在1908年和1948年举行的。

It saw more than 10,000 athletes compete across 26 sports at the newly constructed Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford. When it was time to 'handover' the games to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, just 1,200 gold £2 coins were made to celebrate the occasion, according to MJ Hughes Coins.

在斯特拉特福德的新建的伊丽莎白皇后奥林匹克公园，有10,000多名运动员参加了26场运动。根据MJ Hughes Coins的说法，当将奥运会“移交给巴西里约热内卢”时，只有1200英镑的硬币是为了庆祝这一场合。

This is partly why they are deemed so valuable, with coin dealers at Bullion By Post and Chards listing gold editions at £1,558 and £1,478, respectively. "The 2012 Olympic Handover to Rio £2 coin was issued to mark the handover from London to the next Olympic Games host, Rio de Janeiro," Chards writes in regards to the '2012 UK Coin £2 Gold Proof Olympic Handover to Rio'.

这就是为什么他们被认为如此有价值的部分原因，邮政和木瓜的硬币经销商分别以1,558英镑和1,478英镑的价格上市。 Chards写道：“ 2012年向里约热内卢2币交换了2枚硬币，以标记从伦敦到下一届奥运会主持人里约热内卢的交接。”

"The 2012 Olympic Handover £2 coin was also produced in the following finishes: uncirculated, brilliant uncirculated in a presentation folder, silver proof and silver proof piedfort." Despite these impressive valuations, it's crucial to note that a coin's worth is heavily influenced by its condition.

“ 2012年的奥林匹克移交£2硬币也在以下饰面中生产：在演示文件夹中未流通，明亮的未流通，证明银色和银色的piedfort。”尽管这些令人印象深刻的估值，但至关重要的是要注意，硬币的价值受到其状况的影响很大。

Chris Yang, co-founder of Coins Value, has previously said: "Coins in perfect 'mint' condition are worth far more than their well-worn, damaged, and poor-condition counterparts. Sometimes a minor difference in grade translates to hundreds, maybe thousands in value."

硬币价值的联合创始人克里斯·杨（Chris Yang）此前曾说过：“处于完美的'薄荷'条件下的硬币远远超过了他们破旧，损坏和条件较差的同行。也许有成千上万的价值。”

Aside from this, he also said it is 'best practice' to hold on to rare coins, unless the need for money is urgent. "The better issues of these important coins gain in value over time," he continued. "The prices of these scarce coins are subject to some uncertainty based on alterations in the overall market and economy.

除此之外，他还说，除非紧急赚钱，否则坚持稀有硬币是“最佳实践”。他继续说：“随着时间的流逝，这些重要硬币的价值增长了更好的问题。” “这些稀缺硬币的价格基于整体市场和经济的变化，因此会遭受一些不确定性。

"When selling, shop around various dealers and obtain the best price. An auction house is considered to achieve the maximum value for really spectacular pieces. Be prepared to pay a 10-20% commission on the selling price."

“出售时，请在各种经销商周围购物并获得最优惠的价格。拍卖行被认为是为了实现真正壮观的物品的最大价值。准备以销售价格支付10-20％的佣金。”
