一名男子在买午餐时,收到一枚看似不起眼的硬币作为零钱的一部分。殊不知,这枚硬币如今已价值近1000美元
During a routine lunch purchase, a man in the UK received an unremarkable coin as part of his change, unaware that it would later be valued at nearly $1,000.
在例行购买午餐时,一名英国男子收到了一枚不起眼的硬币作为找零的一部分,他没有意识到这枚硬币后来的价值接近 1,000 美元。
The coin, a 25p piece, is set to go under the hammer at RWB Auctions on Wednesday, with an estimated value that is around 2,800 times its face value.
这枚硬币面值为 25 便士,将于周三在 RWB 拍卖会上进行拍卖,估价约为其面值的 2,800 倍。
According to Kimberly Day, the head of coins at RWB Auctions, a handful of similar coins have emerged in the past.
RWB 拍卖公司钱币负责人金伯利·戴 (Kimberly Day) 表示,过去曾出现过一些类似的钱币。
"There have been a couple of other examples that have gone to auction or sold in the past, but we are talking about a handful," Day told Business Insider in an interview. "It's very, very rare."
戴在接受《商业内幕》采访时表示:“过去还有一些其他的例子被拍卖或出售,但我们谈论的是少数。” “这是非常非常罕见的。”
The rarity stems from the fact that there is no standard 25p coin in UK currency.
其稀有性源于英国货币没有标准的 25 便士硬币。
This specimen, as described in the auction catalog, is among a small batch of trial coins struck in 1981 by the Royal Mint "as part of an experiment" to determine a denomination that would fit between the existing 10p and 50p coins.
正如拍卖目录中所描述的,这枚样本是皇家造币厂于 1981 年“作为实验的一部分”铸造的一小批试验硬币之一,目的是确定适合现有 10 便士和 50 便士硬币的面额。
The Royal Mint ultimately decided against the 25p denomination, introducing the widely used 20p piece instead, which features a design that closely resembles the trial coin.
英国皇家造币厂最终决定放弃 25 便士面额,转而推出广泛使用的 20 便士,其设计与试制币非常相似。
The coin might have easily gone unnoticed by most people, but its unique appearance caught the attention of the seller, a man from Shropshire, central England, who realized he had something special on his hands.
这枚硬币可能很容易被大多数人忽视,但它独特的外观引起了卖家的注意,卖家是一位来自英格兰中部什罗普郡的男子,他意识到自己手上有一些特别的东西。
"I bet plenty of people have had these in their change, in their wallets, and they've probably just passed it on again," Day told BI.
“我敢打赌,很多人的零钱、钱包里都曾有过这些东西,而且他们可能只是再次将其传递出去,”戴告诉《商业时报》。
The seller, who wishes to remain anonymous, told the auction house that he received the coin as lunch change about five years ago and set it aside, recognizing that it was not an ordinary coin.
不愿透露姓名的卖家告诉拍卖行,他大约五年前收到了这枚硬币作为午餐零钱,并把它放在一边,因为他意识到这不是一枚普通的硬币。
When a similar coin made headlines years later, he decided to have his own examined, leading to the discovery of its rarity.
几年后,当一枚类似的硬币成为头条新闻时,他决定检查自己的硬币,从而发现了它的稀有性。
The coin's rarity is evident in the lack of information about it online. However, its discovery has sparked interest among coin collectors, with several enthusiasts visiting the auction house to view the coin firsthand.
网上缺乏有关该硬币的信息,可见该硬币的稀有性。然而,它的发现引起了硬币收藏家的兴趣,一些爱好者前往拍卖行亲眼目睹了这枚硬币。
It's amazing how an unassuming coin, like the ordinary-looking 20p piece, can turn out to be a hidden gem, attracting attention from collectors far and wide.
令人惊奇的是,一枚不起眼的硬币,就像看似普通的 20 便士硬币一样,竟然是一颗隐藏的宝石,吸引了四面八方收藏家的关注。
