5月23日是全国幸运的一分钱日，被庆祝，鼓励人们欣赏那些幸运的小时刻。

But if you find certain pennies, it could be more than just a small stroke of good luck - it’s possible to become a millionaire with just a single coin, thanks to rare pennies that are still in circulation.

但是，如果您发现某些便士，这不仅仅是一小撮好运 - 由于稀有的便士仍在流通，就可以成为一个只有一枚硬币的百万富翁。

A few years ago, man called Don Lutes Jr. rose to fame when he owned a penny that sold for $204,000 at an auction held by Heritage Auctions.

几年前，当他拥有一分钱的一分钱在Heritage Auctions举行的拍卖会上以204,000美元的价格卖出时，他叫Don Lutes Jr. Rose Fame。

The piece was a 1943 Lincoln bronze cent, a coin that was with the man from 1947 to 2018, when he gave it to the auction house before he died. Proceeds went to the Berkshire Athenaeum Public Library in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, where Lutes was born and raised.

这件作品是1943年的林肯铜牌，这是一枚硬币，是1947年至2018年的男子，当时他去世前将其交给了拍卖行。所得款项用于马萨诸塞州皮茨菲尔德的伯克希尔雅典雅典公共图书馆，那里的卢特斯出生和长大。

Since the news spread around the country, Americans have begun searching their pockets for pennies that could be worth thousands, tens of thousands, or even millions of dollars. How do you know if you have one?

由于该消息在全国各地传播，美国人已经开始寻找可能价值数千，数万甚至数百万美元的便士。你怎么知道你有一个吗？

The value of a penny depends on its quality and rarity. The Don Lutes Jr. coin- a bronze Lincoln cent- was sold for such a huge amount because currently, only a handful of these exist. So far, 15 to 20 bronze Lincoln cents have been discovered. The most expensive sold for $1.7 million.

一分钱的价值取决于其质量和稀有性。唐·卢特斯（Don Lutes Jr. Coin）的铜牌林肯（Lincoln Cent-coin）以如此庞大的销售而出售，因为目前只有少数存在。到目前为止，已经发现了15至20个青铜林肯美分。最昂贵的售价为170万美元。

The high value of this coin is due to the fact that the Mint stopped using bronze in pennies to be able to instead use the material for armed struggle. Since then, the manufacture of pennies has been carried out with zinc-coated steel plates, making the bronze Lincoln cent “the most famous error coin in American numismatics”, according to David Stone, coin cataloguer at Heritage Auctions.

这种硬币的高价值是由于造币厂停止使用便士青铜的事实，以便能够将材料用于武装斗争。从那时起，便士的制造是用锌涂层的钢板进行的，使林肯的铜牌是“美国钱币学中最著名的错误硬币”，这是Heritage Auctions的硬币编目David Stone。

Due to its rarity and great value, there are several fakes of the penny circulating in the collectors’ market. Experts recommend carrying out the famous magnet test to corroborate its veracity: if the coin sticks, it is fake because the true coin is made of bronze, which is not magnetic.

由于它的稀有性和巨大的价值，收藏家市场中有几个佳肴流传的假货。专家建议进行著名的磁铁测试来证实其真实性：如果硬币棒，那是假的，因为真正的硬币是用青铜制成的，这不是磁性的。

So check your pockets, and good luck on National Lucky Penny Day!

因此，请检查您的口袋，并在国家幸运的一分钱日祝您好运！
