目前尚不清楚是否有更多的人能够逃脱皇家造币厂的手，而硬币收藏家正在狩猎，以发掘专家所说的“威利·旺卡（Willy Wonka）的金票”。

``鉴于皇家造币厂的安全性极为严格，突然有两个例子幸存下来，并且可以同时进行研究，这是一个独特的机会”。

Mr Edmund has also now established a dedicated hotline through Spink & Son auction house for anyone who believes they have found one of the unique coins, which can be reached by emailing brexit50p@spink.com.
