1944年的鋼製便士以250,00美元的價格出售典當之星

雷帶著他的70歲生日禮物到達了這家商店，這是罕見的“ 1944年鋼鐵”。這名男子在節目中為硬幣提供了25,000美元的巨額價格，但對他來說還不夠好。

A rare 1944 steel penny sold for an incredible price at an auction in 2008, and now, another such coin has appeared on "Pawn Stars."

1944年罕見的鋼鐵便士以令人難以置信的價格在2008年的一次拍賣中售出，現在，另一枚硬幣出現在“典當之星”上。

The 1944 Zinc-Coated Steel Cent was made as a result of a "Transitional Error" that occurred during the changeover from zinc-coated steel back to bronze during World War II, according to Numista.

根據Numista的說法，1944年鍍鋅鋼分美是由於在第二次世界大戰期間從鋅塗層鋼轉換為青銅的“過渡誤差”的結果。

On the show, Harrison was highly interested in the coin. "It's a 1944 steel penny. That is really neat. I know there's less than 100 of them in existence," he said.

在演出中，哈里森對硬幣非常感興趣。他說：“這是1944年的一分錢。那真的很整潔。我知道其中有不到100人。”

However, according to the guest, Ray, there were fewer than 30 such coins in existence. He got the coin as a gift for his 70th birthday, and it was from the same year that he was born.

但是，根據客人的說法，雷（Ray）的存在不到30個這樣的硬幣。他將硬幣作為70歲生日的禮物，而這是從同一年出生的。

Harrison noted that the coin was "really weird," as it wasn't supposed to exist in the first place.

哈里森指出，硬幣“真的很奇怪”，因為它首先不應該存在。

"You know, World War II happened alone. I mean, just everything was rationed. Bacon was rationed. And the US government came along and said, 'Hey, you know, we make tens of millions of pennies every year. Basically told the US Mint, you have to make cents out of something else because copper is a war metal.' So they started making the cents during 1943 out of steel that was zinc-plated, and everyone absolutely hated them," Harrison explained.

“你知道，第二次世界大戰是獨自發生的。我的意思是，一切都配給了。培根已經配給了。美國政府出現了，說：'嘿，你知道，我們每年每年都會做數千萬的便士。基本上是告訴美國薄荷，您必須用其他事物來製作美女，因為銅是一種戰爭金屬。''因此，他們在1943年開始用鋅鍍鋅的鋼來製作美分，每個人都絕對討厭它們。”哈里森解釋說。

He further added that following the feedback, the mint stopped making steel pennies in 1944. However, some of the blanks "got stuck in the corners," and a few zinc-coated steel pennies were accidentally struck.

他進一步補充說，在反饋之後，薄荷在1944年停止製作鋼製的便士。但是，一些空白“被卡在角落”，而一些鋅塗層的鋼製便士意外被擊中。

"This coin is one of the great mistakes of the US Mint," Harrison claimed.

哈里森說：“這枚硬幣是美國造幣廠的最大錯誤之一。”

Thus, Ray estimated that the coin was worth a lot of money, about $102,000 to be precise.

因此，雷估計，硬幣的價值很高，確切地說是102,000美元。

Hearing the request, Harrison immediately called his expert, Dave, to take a look at the PCGS-graded coin.

哈里森（Harrison）聽取了要求，立即打電話給他的專家戴夫（Dave）看一下PCGS畢業的硬幣。

Upon further inspection of the coin, the expert noted that it was probably the result of the most famous minting error of the 20th century, and people have been digging through their pocket change to try and find one of these coins for decades. "If you find one, it's a gold mine," Dave noted.

在進一步檢查硬幣後，專家指出，這可能是20世紀最著名的鑄造錯誤的結果，人們一直在挖掘自己的口袋，以嘗試在數十年來嘗試找到其中一種硬幣。戴夫指出：“如果找到一個，那是一個金礦。”

While it was revealed on the show that such a coin sold for more than $300,000 at an auction back in 2008, Dave estimated that Ray's coin would be worth about $30,000.

儘管在節目中透露，這種硬幣在2008年的一次拍賣會上以超過30萬美元的價格售出，但戴夫估計雷的硬幣價值約30,000美元。

"That seems awfully low to me," the guest immediately said to the expert.

客人立即對專家說：“對我來說這似乎非常低。”

Ray insisted that many websites value the coin much higher, but Dave claimed that $30,000 would be a realistic number that the coin could fetch in a public auction.

雷堅持認為，許多網站對硬幣的重視程度要高得多，但戴夫聲稱30,000美元將是硬幣可以在公開拍賣中獲取的現實數字。

After the expert left the shop, Ray kept insisting that $30,000 was too low for the coin.

專家離開商店後，雷一直堅持認為30,000美元對於硬幣而言太低。

"This is probably one of the rarest penny coins in existence. I don't know where the expert came up with that value," he said.

他說：“這可能是現有的最稀有的一分錢​​硬幣之一。我不知道專家在哪裡提出了這一價值。”

However, Harrison was adamant about sticking to the valuation shared by the expert, and he offered Ray $25,000 for the coin. Since it was extremely low for Ray, he told Harrison that he would need to go up.

但是，哈里森堅持要堅持專家共享的估值，他為硬幣提供了25,000美元。由於雷（Ray）非常低，他告訴哈里森（Harrison），他需要上升。

Ray then asked for $75,000, but Harrison said, "Not gonna happen." The guest too stuck to his demand and told Harrison that they would not be able to make a deal.

雷然後要求$ 75,000，但哈里森說：“不會發生。”客人太符合了他的要求，並告訴哈里森，他們將無法達成協議。

In the end, Ray said, "I think the offer of $25,000 is ridiculously low. But I'll just keep it in the family, and somebody eventually will sell it for a lot more than I'm being offered today."

最後，雷說：“我認為25,000美元的報價低得很低。但是我只是把它保留在家庭中，最終有人會出售它比今天提供的要多得多。”
