2P硬幣價值超過1,000英鎊的零錢

這些硬幣是錯誤的，並受到收藏家的高度追捧

An expert has advised people to "flip" over their 2p coins to check for a specific phrase.

專家建議人們“翻轉” 2p硬幣，以檢查特定的短語。

Spotting coins with this wording could make them worth an impressive £1,000 - or even more.

用這種措辭發現硬幣可能會使它們的價值令人印象深刻的1,000英鎊，甚至更多。

The coins are particularly sought after by collectors due to an error made by the Royal Mint.

由於皇家造幣廠的錯誤，收藏家特別追捕了硬幣。

In 1983, the Mint was meant to be producing 2p coins with the inscription "two pence". However, some coins were made in error with the words "new pence".

1983年，造幣廠打算用銘文“兩便士”生產2p硬幣。但是，有些硬幣是錯誤的，用“新便士”一詞。

This was because all 2p coins struck between 1971 and 1981 were labelled "new pence". But, in 1982, this was then changed to "two pence".

這是因為在1971年至1981年之間，所有2p硬幣都被標記為“新便士”。但是，在1982年，然後將其更改為“兩便士”。

However, some coins from 1983 slipped through the net with the old wording.

但是，1983年的一些硬幣用舊措辭滑過網。

An expert, known online as the Coin Collecting Wizard, shared a video on TikTok urging people to look out for the coins.

一位專家，在線被稱為“收集巫師”的硬幣，分享了一段有關Tiktok的視頻，敦促人們注意硬幣。

In his video, the expert said: "This is the one you want.

專家在他的視頻中說：“這是您想要的。

"If you ever come across a 2p coin from 1983 with 'new pence' on it instead of 'two pence', don't spend it - you could be holding a rare minting error worth thousands of pounds.

“如果您從1983年遇到了2p硬幣，上面有'新便士'而不是'兩便士'，請不要花它 - 您可能會拿著一個罕見的鑄造錯誤，價值數千英鎊。

"In 1983, the Royal Mint officially changed the wording from 'new pence' to 'two pence' - but a few coins slipped through the net with the old wording.

“ 1983年，皇家造幣廠正式將措辭從“新便士”更改為'兩便士' - 但有幾枚硬幣用舊的措辭滑入了網中。

"These weren't meant for circulation, so finding on is a serious collector's win."

“這些並不是要流通的，因此尋找是一個嚴肅的收藏家的勝利。”

To ensure you don't accidentally spend one of these coins he offered some advice.

為了確保您不會意外地花費這些硬幣之一，他提供了一些建議。

The expert added: "Top tip: Flip your 1983 2p coins and check the wording. If it says 'new pence' - you've struck treasure!"

專家補充說：“最重要的提示：翻轉您的1983年2P硬幣並檢查措辭。如果說“新便士” - 您已經擊中了寶藏！”

Also speaking on TikTok, experts at Change Checker estimated these coins could sell for around £1,000.

Checter Checker的專家估計，這些硬幣的售價約為1,000英鎊。

They said: "In 1982 the design of the 2p coin changed from saying ‘new pence’ to ‘two pence’.

他們說：“ 1982年，2p硬幣的設計從說“新便士”變成了“兩便士”。

"However, some coins struck in 1983 used the old reverse die and therefore have the old inscription of ‘new pence’. So you should check your new pence 2p coins for the date 1983 as it could fetch you up to £1,000."

“但是，有些硬幣在1983年使用了舊的反向模具，因此具有'New Pence'的舊銘文。因此，您應該在1983年檢查新的Pence 2P硬幣，因為它可以為您提供高達1,000英鎊的價格。”

The Royal Mint notes on its website: "In 1983 a small number of 2p coins were mistakenly struck with the wording 'new pence' on the reverse. These coins were produced to brilliant uncirculated quality - a standard higher than ordinary circulating coins - and were included in special sets intended for collectors.

皇家造幣廠在其網站上註明：“ 1983年，少數2p硬幣被錯誤地擊中了反向的措辭“新便士”。這些硬幣的生產以出色的非電流質量生產 - 標準的循環循環硬幣高於普通的循環硬幣，並包含在打算用於收藏家的特殊套裝中。

"Since there are relatively few coins with the date 1983 and the inscription 'new pence' in circulation, they may well have a value higher than face value to a collector. The Royal Mint is, however, unable to comment on the value of any individual coin and we would recommend that you should consult a coin dealer."

“由於1983年的日期和銘文“新便士”的發行量相對較少，因此它們的價值很可能比面值高於收藏家。但是，皇家造幣廠無法對任何個人硬幣的價值發表評論，我們建議您應該諮詢硬幣經銷商。”

At the time of reporting, one example of this coin was listed on eBay for £2,499.95.

在報告時，該硬幣的一個例子在eBay上以2,499.95英鎊的價格列出。
