The 1933 penny coin is very rare, but with no exact record of how many were issued, there could be others out there, including among your loose change.

1933年的一分錢硬幣非常罕見，但是沒有確切的記錄，即發行了多少枚，可能還有其他人，包括您的零錢。

The ultra-rare item sold for a staggering £127,000. The Royal Mint Museum website states: "The banks possessed such large stocks of pennies in 1933 that it was not necessary to strike any more for general circulation. But there was a convention at the time that complete sets of coins of the current year were buried under the foundation stones of new buildings.

超稀有物品以驚人的127,000英鎊出售。皇家薄荷博物館的網站指出：“銀行在1933年擁有如此大的便士，以至於不必再罷工一般流通。但是，當時有一個大會，本年度的一組硬幣被埋葬在新建築的基礎下。

"Consequently three 1933 pennies were struck for buildings erected in that year, along with a small number to be kept as record copies by the British Museum and the Royal Mint Museum. No record was kept at the time of how many pennies dated 1933 were made but it is thought to be no more than six or seven.

“因此，大英博物館和皇家薄荷博物館的記錄副本，在那年建造的建築物被打擊了三分1933年的便士。在1933年有多少個日期的便士時，沒有記錄記錄，但被認為不超過六，七。

"With no precise record of the number made, and with the coin having been struck to ordinary circulation standard, it seemed possible that one might turn up in everyday use, prompting a generation to search their change for the rare but ultimately elusive penny of 1933."

“由於沒有精確的數字記錄，而且由於硬幣被擊中了普通的流通標準，似乎有可能在日常使用中出現，促使一代人在1933年的稀有但最終難以捉摸的一分錢中尋找變化。”

But in August 1970, thieves broke into the Church of St Cross, Middleton, near Leeds, and stole a set of coins under its foundation stone.

但是在1970年8月，盜賊闖入了利茲附近的米德爾頓的聖克羅斯教堂，並在其基礎石頭下偷了一套硬幣。

Following this, a second set buried under St Mary’s Church, Hawksworth Wood, Kirkstall, Leeds, was removed and sold. However, it is thought the third set remains in place.

此後，將第二套埋葬在聖瑪麗教堂（St Mary's Church）下，霍克斯沃思·伍德（Hawksworth Wood），柯克斯托爾（Kirkstall），利茲（Leeds）被拆除並出售。但是，人們認為第三組仍然存在。
