A commemorative 2012 Olympic 50p coin has sold for an incredible 8,000 times its face value.

纪念2012年奥运50p硬币的售价令人难以置信的8,000倍。

The coin, which was designed to mark the London games with an image of a swimmer on the tail side, was described by the Royal Mint as “extra special”.

这款硬币旨在用尾巴的游泳者的图像来纪念伦敦游戏，皇家造币厂将其描述为“额外的特殊”。

The coin was designed in 2011, and the original design featured lines covering the swimmer’s face. However, the design was later tweaked to make the face more visible.

该硬币是在2011年设计的，最初的设计覆盖了游泳者的脸。但是，后来进行了调整，以使脸更明显。

It is not known exactly how many of the first design 50p coins entered circulation before the changes were made, but numbers are extremely limited.

在进行更改之前，尚不清楚确切的第一个设计50p硬币进入循环，但数字非常有限。

This is often the case with error coins, and they immediately become a collectable piece. Few have ever been sold and many take pride of place in private collections.

错误硬币通常是这种情况，它们立即成为可收集的作品。很少有出售的东西，许多人以私人收藏为荣。

The coin, which had lines covering the swimmers face, inspired a mini bidding war with 28 bids placed during the online auction before selling for £4,000.

这枚硬币覆盖了游泳者的脸，启发了一场迷你竞标战争，在在线拍卖过程中进行了28次出价，然后以4,000英镑的价格出售。

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。

Along with the design, other aspects of the coin which increase value are the condition of the coin and whether it has an error in its design.

与设计一起，硬币的其他方面增加了价值的条件以及其设计是否有错误。

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.

出售的方式也可以决定硬币的价值 - 而一些硬币收藏家将在eBay或拍卖会上竞标大量资金，而其他硬币则通过通过硬币经销商出售而选择了更多可靠的估值。
