硬币收集者正在稀有的50便士，最高可获得2,000英镑，并且有一个关键的细节值得关注。

Tiktok Coin Guru硬币收集巫师，揭示了一个很小的错误，可能会使您的变化值得一提。

Coin collectors are going wild over a small mistake that could make your change worth a small fortune, according to a TikTok coin guru.

据Tiktok Coin Guru说，硬币收藏家因一个小错误而变得疯狂，这可能会使您的变化值得一笔小钱。

As Coin Collecting Wizard explains in his latest video, "the secret is all in the face ".

正如Coin收集巫师在他的最新视频中解释的那样，“秘密都在面对面”。

The Royal Mint, the official maker of British coins, regularly puts limited-edition pieces into general circulation.

英国硬币的官方制造商皇家造币厂定期将限量版作品纳入一般流通。

The coin in question is the 2011 Aquatics 50p, released to mark the 2012 London Olympics. It was one of 29 commemorative designs that were struck for the games.

所讨论的硬币是2011年水上运动50p，以纪念2012年伦敦奥运会。这是比赛中受到打击的29种纪念设计之一。

While most versions show a swimmer with a clear, visible face, around 600 coins were minted with a major error - wave lines cover the entire face, making the swimmer's features almost vanish.

虽然大多数版本都显示出一个清晰，可见的脸的游泳者，但大约有600个硬币带有一个重大错误 - 波线覆盖了整个脸部，使游泳者的特征几乎消失了。

"It's called the lines over face error and it was quickly corrected," Barry adds.

巴里补充说：“这被称为“面部误差”线，并迅速纠正。”

That tiny difference could bag you a huge payout. According to Barry, one of the error coins recently went under the hammer for £2,000.

这种微小的差异可以使您获得巨大的支出。根据巴里的说法，最近的一枚错误硬币以2,000英镑的价格被锤子下来。

Even better, if you've got the collector's edition of the coin - sealed in a purple and teal card - there's a chance it's the rare misprint.

更好的是，如果您拥有收藏家的硬币版本（用紫色和蓝绿色卡片密封），那很有可能是罕见的错误。

One of those sold on eBay for a whopping £3,766 last August.

去年八月在eBay上以高达3,766英镑的价格出售的人之一。

So if you've got any old 50ps lying around, it might be time for a proper rummage.

因此，如果您周围有50ps的旧50ps，则可能是时候进行适当的垃圾了。

If you think that you might have a rare coin then it's worth checking with an expert to see if yours could sell for a hefty price tag.

如果您认为自己可能有稀有的硬币，那么值得与专家核实您是否可以以高价出售。

The most valuable coins are usually those with a low mintage or an error. These are often deemed the most valuable by collectors.

最有价值的硬币通常是铸造量低或错误的硬币。这些通常被收藏家视为最有价值的。

You can check how much the coin is selling for on eBay by searching the full name of the coin, selecting the 'sold' listing and then toggling the search to 'highest value'.

您可以通过搜索硬币的全名，选择“已销售”清单，然后将搜索切换到“最高值”，从而在eBay上查看硬币的销售量。

但是，并非总是列出硬币出售的硬币。硬币确实值得别人愿意为他们付出的钱。

Sometimes, collectors are willing to pay more for a coin if they need it to complete a set.

有时，如果收藏家需要完成一套套件，则愿意为硬币支付更多费用。

收集的最流行的硬币之一是50便士。这是因为它们的表面积很大，因为有足够的空间可以添加新的和复杂的设计。

直径为27.5毫米，它是最大的英国硬币，用于庆祝大型场合，周年纪念日和历史活动。

Errors make a coin unique which means they will more than likely be worth more, as there a fewer of them.

错误使硬币具有独特性，这意味着它们很有可能值得更多，因为其中少了。

Even without a misprint, if a coin has a low mintage there are fewer of them in circulation and so are deemed rare.
