稀有50p硬幣的售價為157英鎊，您可以在更改中有一個

50便士的硬幣引發了eBay的競標戰，並最終以157英鎊的價格出售

A 50p coin has sold for a huge £157 after sparking something of a bidding war on eBay.

在eBay上引發了一場競標戰爭後，一枚50便士的硬幣以157英鎊的價格售出。

Many coins are sought after by collectors and this one in particular is one of the UK's rarest. Some coins can be worth significantly more than their face value, and this one has an estimated value of around £145 - meaning this lucky seller made some extra profit.

收藏家追捕了許多硬幣，尤其是英國最稀有的硬幣之一。有些硬幣的價值可能比其面值高得多，而且該硬幣的估計價值約為145英鎊，這意味著這個幸運的賣家賺了一些額外的利潤。

The Royal Mint is thought to have produced around 210,000 of these coins, which were launched in 2009 to mark the 250th anniversary of Kew Gardens' opening.

人們認為，皇家造幣廠已經生產了大約21萬個硬幣，這些硬幣是在2009年推出的，以紀念錫花園開業250週年。

The piece features the iconic Chinese Pagoda from the gardens on one side and the late Queen's portrait on the other. The coin was listed on eBay as "2009 Kew Gardens 50p Fifty Pence Genuine RARE" and had a starting price of £4.99.

這件作品以一側的花園中的標誌性中國寶塔和已故皇后的肖像為特色。該硬幣在eBay上被列為“ 2009 Kew Gardens 50p 50便士真正的稀有”，起價為4.99英鎊。

However, a 21-way bidding war saw the price jump up and up, before the coin eventually sold for £157. The buyer must also pay £2.99 for Royal Mail Tracked 48 hour delivery.

但是，在硬幣最終以157英鎊的價格售出之前，一場21次競標戰爭使價格上漲了上漲。買方還必須支付2.99英鎊的皇家郵寄，跟踪了48小時的交貨。

Experts believe there are still hundreds of thousands of Kew Gardens 50p coins in circulation, so there could well be one lurking in your change. If you do find one, the first thing you should do is check the date.

專家們認為，仍有數十萬桶裝花園50便士發行，因此您的變化很可能有一個潛伏。如果您確實找到了一個，那麼您應該做的第一件事就是檢查日期。

This is because the Royal Mint reissued a batch of the coins in 2019 to celebrate 50 years of the 50p, and this version doesn't tend to sell for as much. However, these items have been known to fetch around £70 or £80 on eBay, so it could still be well worth listing it online.

這是因為皇家造幣廠在2019年重新發行了一批硬幣，以慶祝50便士的50年，而且此版本往往不會太多。但是，眾所周知，這些物品在eBay上的價格約為70英鎊或80英鎊，因此仍然值得在網上列出它。
