达勒姆郡的eBay上市引起了硬币收藏家和好奇的购物者的注意，在2018年格洛斯特50p Coin的裁缝被销售后，以20,086.72英镑的价格出售。

该硬币是备受追捧的Beattrix Potter 50p系列的一部分，该系列由2016年至2018年皇家造币厂发行，以纪念儿童作者成立150周年。

A 2018 Tailor of Gloucester 50p coin is listed on eBay for £20,086.72.

2018年格洛斯特50p硬币的裁缝在eBay上以20,086.72英镑的价格上市。

The coin is part of the Beatrix Potter 50p collection, released by the Royal Mint between 2016 and 2018 to mark the 150th anniversary of the children’s author.

硬币是Beatrix Potter 50p系列的一部分，该系列由皇家造币厂2016年至2018年发行，以纪念儿童作者成立150周年。

Designed by Emma Noble, the Tailor of Gloucester coin features the image of a mouse perched on a reel of thread, reading a newspaper — a beloved scene from Potter’s classic tale.

由格洛斯特硬币的裁缝艾玛·诺布尔（Emma Noble）设计的特色是鼠标的图像栖息在一堆线上，阅读报纸 - 波特经典故事的一个心爱的场景。

The seller, based in County Durham, describes the coin as “extremely rare”.

总部位于达勒姆郡的卖方将硬币描述为“极为罕见”。

While the Royal Mint confirms that just 3.9 million Tailor of Gloucester coins were minted in 2018, making it one of the rarer coins in the Beatrix Potter set, experts at the Mint urge caution over the listing price.

尽管皇家造币厂证实，2018年只有390万个格洛斯特硬币的裁缝量铸造，使其成为Beatrix Potter套装中稀有硬币之一，但在上市价格上，MINT敦促谨慎的专家。

“This coin is certainly collectable and does have value above its face value,” said a spokesperson from the Royal Mint.

皇家造币厂的发言人说：“这种硬币肯定是可收集的，并且确实具有高于其面值的价值。”

“However, prospective buyers should always research current market trends. Listings at inflated prices don’s necessarily reflect real-world sales.”

“但是，潜在的买家应始终研究当前的市场趋势。价格膨胀的列表唐一定反映了现实世界的销售。”

The Beatrix Potter 50p series has proven enormously popular among UK collectors, with characters such as Peter Rabbit, Benjamin Bunny, and Jemima Puddle-Duck capturing imaginations — and generating a bustling secondary market.

Beatrix Potter 50p系列已被证明在英国收藏家中非常受欢迎，彼得·兔子，本杰明·兔子和杰米玛·布德尔德等人物捕捉了想象力，并产生了繁华的二级市场。

While many of the coins can be found in circulation, uncirculated or error versions often attract premium prices online.

尽管许多硬币都可以在流通中找到，但未流通或错误的版本通常会在线吸引高级价格。

Despite that, few coins actually sell for the thousands sometimes advertised. Online platforms like eBay are often flooded with similar listings, some genuine and others speculative.

尽管如此，实际上很少有硬币卖出有时会广告宣传。像eBay这样的在线平台经常充斥着类似的列表，有些是真正的，有些是投机性的。

“It’s the equivalent of a digital treasure hunt,” said one Durham-based coin enthusiast.

一位总部位于达勒姆的硬币爱好者说：“这相当于数字寻宝。”

“But buyers should be wary of hype and focus on condition, rarity, and verified value.”

“但是买家应该对炒作保持警惕，并专注于条件，稀有性和验证价值。”

What makes a coin valuable?

是什么使硬币有价值？

The 50 pence piece has become the most valued and collected coin in the UK, with many collectable designs appearing on its heptagonal canvas.

50便士的作品已成为英国最有价值和收集最多的硬币，其七角形画布上出现了许多可收藏的设计。

Its 27.5mm diameter makes it the largest of any British coin, and allows space for decorative pictures. It has often been used to celebrate big events over the past 50 years of British history.

它的直径为27.5毫米，使其成为任何英国硬币中最大的，并为装饰图片提供了空间。在英国历史的过去50年中，它经常被用来庆祝大型活动。

The rarest coins tend to be of the greatest value, with the mintage (number of coins with each design made) being the fundamental attraction for collectors.

最稀有的硬币往往具有最大的价值，而铸造（每种设计的硬币数量）是收藏家的基本吸引力。

The way in which it is sold can also determine the coin’s value – while some coin collectors will bid vast amounts of money on eBay or at auction, others opt for more robust valuations by selling via a coin dealer.

出售其出售方式也可以确定硬币的价值 - 而一些硬币收藏家将在eBay或拍卖会上竞标大量资金，而另一些则选择通过通过硬币经销商出售的估值。
