How to spot a rare coin

如何发现稀有硬币

A coin is usually classed as rare due to two factors - how many of it were struck or if it is an "error" coin.

由于有两个因素，通常将硬币归类为罕见 - 其中有多少个因素或它是“误差”硬币。

For example, the 2009 Kew Gardens 50p is considered valuable because only 210,000 were minted and put into circulation.

例如，2009年桶装花园50便士被认为是有价值的，因为只有210,000人被铸造并流通。

The same goes for the Atlantic Salmon, with only 200,000 having been put into circulation in 2023.

大西洋鲑鱼也是如此，2023年只有200,000次流通。

A coin is classed as an "error" piece if something went wrong during the manufacturing process and the coin was struck incorrectly.

如果在制造过程中出现了问题，并且硬币被错误击中，则将硬币归类为“错误”。

These types of coins are fewer and far between than those with lower mintage figures, which can make them super valuable.

这些类型的硬币比具有较低的铸造量的硬币要少，并且可以使它们超级有价值。

For example, the HG Wells £2 error coin has been known to sell for up to £1,000 in the past.

例如，HG Wells售价2英镑的错误硬币过去曾以最高1,000英镑的价格出售。

Bronze 20p coins have been known to sell for up to £750 as well while error £1 coins have been known to go for £1,000s.

众所周知，铜牌20p硬币的售价高达750英镑，而错误的1英镑硬币则以1,000英镑的价格出售。

How to sell a rare coin

如何出售稀有硬币

You’ve got three main options: in auction, on eBay or on Facebook Marketplace.

您有三个主要选择：在拍卖中，在eBay上或在Facebook市场上。

The safest way to sell a rare coin is more than likely at auction. You can organise this with The Royal Mint's Collectors Service.

销售稀有硬币的最安全方法在拍卖会上很有可能。您可以通过Royal Mint的收藏家服务来组织此功能。

It has a team of experts who can help you authenticate and value your coin.

它有一个专家团队，可以帮助您对硬币进行身份验证和重视。

You can get in touch via email and a member of the valuation team will get back to you.

您可以通过电子邮件取得联系，估值团队的成员将与您联系。

You will be charged for the service though - the cost varies depending on the size of your collection.

不过，您将获得该服务的费用 - 费用取决于收藏的大小。

If you are selling on eBay, make sure you list the coin's price accurately.

如果您在eBay上出售，请确保准确列出硬币的价格。

You can do this by checking how much other sellers have sold the same piece for.

您可以通过检查其他卖家卖出同一件作品来做到这一点。

It's pointless listing a rare 50p for £100 if people have only been willing to pay £50 for it previously, for example.

例如，如果人们以前只愿意为此支付50英镑，则毫无意义地列出了50便士的稀有50便士。

Finally, you can sell on Facebook Marketplace, but be wary of scammers trying to get you to transfer money to dodgy accounts.

最后，您可以在Facebook Marketplace上出售，但要警惕试图让您将资金转移到狡猾的帐户的骗子。

It can be easier to meet buyers in person and get cash for your coin, but only in daylight and in a public place.

亲自见到买家并为您的硬币获得现金可能会更容易，但只有在日光和公共场所。

In any case, if you're selling on eBay or Facebook, decent pictures will help the coin sell for the best price.

无论如何，如果您在eBay或Facebook上出售，那么不错的图片将有助于以最优惠的价格出售硬币。
