五枚英国旧硬币的价值可能超过 15,000 英镑

一位专家敦促英国人检查家里的硬币罐，看看是否有五枚可能非常有价值的旧英国硬币

Five old British coins could be hiding in your coin jar at home and be worth more than £15,000 combined.

家里的硬币罐里可能藏有五枚英国旧硬币，总价值超过 15,000 英镑。

An account known as the Coin Collecting Wizard explained exactly what to look for, in a video uploaded to social media platform TikTok.

一个名为“硬币收集向导”的帐户在上传到社交媒体平台 TikTok 的视频中准确解释了要寻找的内容。

These include coins that haven’t been legal tender for many years such as a florin, or two-shilling piece, and thruppence, or three pence.

其中包括多年来一直未成为法定货币的硬币，例如弗罗林（即两先令）和苏彭斯（即三便士）。

The Coin Collecting Wizard said: “Ye old English coins that will make you rich today.”

钱币收藏巫师说：“这些古老的英国硬币今天会让你致富。”

He first advised people to look for a brass thruppence from 1949.

他首先建议人们寻找 1949 年的黄铜 thrupence。

He said: “The 1949 brass thruppence has a very low mintage of just 464,000.”

他说：“1949 年的黄铜 thrupence 的发行量非常低，仅为 464,000 枚。”

Coins that are low mintage are often very valuable as it means there aren’t many of them about.

发行量低的硬币通常非常有价值，因为这意味着它们的数量不多。

“One of these recently sold for just under £500 in fine condition,” he said.

“其中一件最近以不到 500 英镑的价格售出，状况良好，”他说。

Then he recommended looking for a 1924 florin. Florins were withdrawn from circulation in the UK in 1993.

然后他建议寻找 1924 年的弗罗林。弗罗林于 1993 年停止在英国流通。

He continued: “This coin has a value of £65 in fine condition and over £145 in uncirculated condition. The 1925 fluorine is next with another low mintage of just over a million. This coin sells for around £40 in good condition and over £500 in uncirculated condition.”

他继续说道：“这枚硬币在完好的情况下价值 65 英镑，在未流通的情况下价值超过 145 英镑。 1925 年的氟币紧随其后，其发行量也较低，仅略高于 100 万枚。这枚硬币在完好的情况下售价约为 40 英镑，在未流通的情况下售价超过 500 英镑。”

Even more valuable is a penny coin from 1869. The coin collector said: “No one knows how many of this old penny were minted from 1869 and can have a value of up to £5000 pounds in good condition.”

更有价值的是一枚1869年的便士硬币。硬币收藏家说：“没有人知道这枚1869年的旧便士有多少枚，在完好的情况下价值高达5000英镑。”

Finally he advised how to spot a rare coin worth up to £10,000.

最后，他建议如何识别价值高达 10,000 英镑的稀有硬币。

“The 1905 half crown is one of the rarest half crowns to ever be minted at just over 166,000. This can fetch anywhere between £450 and £10,000.”

“1905 年的半冠是有史以来最稀有的半冠之一，铸造量略高于 166,000 枚。售价在 450 到 10,000 英镑之间。”
