達勒姆郡的eBay上市引起了硬幣收藏家和好奇的購物者的注意，在2018年格洛斯特50p Coin的裁縫被銷售後，以20,086.72英鎊的價格出售。

該硬幣是備受追捧的Beattrix Potter 50p系列的一部分，該系列由2016年至2018年皇家造幣廠發行，以紀念兒童作者成立150週年。

A 2018 Tailor of Gloucester 50p coin is listed on eBay for £20,086.72.

2018年格洛斯特50p硬幣的裁縫在eBay上以20,086.72英鎊的價格上市。

The coin is part of the Beatrix Potter 50p collection, released by the Royal Mint between 2016 and 2018 to mark the 150th anniversary of the children’s author.

硬幣是Beatrix Potter 50p系列的一部分，該系列由皇家造幣廠2016年至2018年發行，以紀念兒童作者成立150週年。

Designed by Emma Noble, the Tailor of Gloucester coin features the image of a mouse perched on a reel of thread, reading a newspaper — a beloved scene from Potter’s classic tale.

由格洛斯特硬幣的裁縫艾瑪·諾布爾（Emma Noble）設計的特色是鼠標的圖像棲息在一堆線上，閱讀報紙 - 波特經典故事的一個心愛的場景。

The seller, based in County Durham, describes the coin as “extremely rare”.

總部位於達勒姆郡的賣方將硬幣描述為“極為罕見”。

While the Royal Mint confirms that just 3.9 million Tailor of Gloucester coins were minted in 2018, making it one of the rarer coins in the Beatrix Potter set, experts at the Mint urge caution over the listing price.

儘管皇家造幣廠證實，2018年只有390萬個格洛斯特硬幣的裁縫量鑄造，使其成為Beatrix Potter套裝中稀有硬幣之一，但在上市價格上，MINT敦促謹慎的專家。

“This coin is certainly collectable and does have value above its face value,” said a spokesperson from the Royal Mint.

皇家造幣廠的發言人說：“這種硬幣肯定是可收集的，並且確實具有高於其面值的價值。”

“However, prospective buyers should always research current market trends. Listings at inflated prices don’s necessarily reflect real-world sales.”

“但是，潛在的買家應始終研究當前的市場趨勢。價格膨脹的列表唐一定反映了現實世界的銷售。”

The Beatrix Potter 50p series has proven enormously popular among UK collectors, with characters such as Peter Rabbit, Benjamin Bunny, and Jemima Puddle-Duck capturing imaginations — and generating a bustling secondary market.

Beatrix Potter 50p系列已被證明在英國收藏家中非常受歡迎，彼得·兔子，本傑明·兔子和傑米瑪·布德爾德等人物捕捉了想像力，並產生了繁華的二級市場。

While many of the coins can be found in circulation, uncirculated or error versions often attract premium prices online.

儘管許多硬幣都可以在流通中找到，但未流通或錯誤的版本通常會在線吸引高級價格。

Despite that, few coins actually sell for the thousands sometimes advertised. Online platforms like eBay are often flooded with similar listings, some genuine and others speculative.

儘管如此，實際上很少有硬幣賣出有時會廣告宣傳。像eBay這樣的在線平台經常充斥著類似的列表，有些是真正的，有些是投機性的。

“It’s the equivalent of a digital treasure hunt,” said one Durham-based coin enthusiast.

一位總部位於達勒姆的硬幣愛好者說：“這相當於數字尋寶。”

“But buyers should be wary of hype and focus on condition, rarity, and verified value.”

“但是買家應該對炒作保持警惕，並專注於條件，稀有性和驗證價值。”

What makes a coin valuable?

是什麼使硬幣有價值？

The 50 pence piece has become the most valued and collected coin in the UK, with many collectable designs appearing on its heptagonal canvas.

50便士的作品已成為英國最有價值和收集最多的硬幣，其七角形畫布上出現了許多可收藏的設計。

Its 27.5mm diameter makes it the largest of any British coin, and allows space for decorative pictures. It has often been used to celebrate big events over the past 50 years of British history.

它的直徑為27.5毫米，使其成為任何英國硬幣中最大的，並為裝飾圖片提供了空間。在英國歷史的過去50年中，它經常被用來慶祝大型活動。

The rarest coins tend to be of the greatest value, with the mintage (number of coins with each design made) being the fundamental attraction for collectors.

最稀有的硬幣往往具有最大的價值，而鑄造（每種設計的硬幣數量）是收藏家的基本吸引力。

The way in which it is sold can also determine the coin’s value – while some coin collectors will bid vast amounts of money on eBay or at auction, others opt for more robust valuations by selling via a coin dealer.

出售其出售方式也可以確定硬幣的價值 - 而一些硬幣收藏家將在eBay或拍賣會上競標大量資金，而另一些則選擇通過通過硬幣經銷商出售的估值。
