当专家敦促英国人“停止花费”它们时，约有20便士的硬币价值60英镑

重新“可能找到”，这意味着任何有变化的人现在都应该检查

An expert has advised Brits to be attentive in checking their 20p coins, as some in circulation could fetch a remarkable £60.

一位专家建议英国人专心检查其20便士硬币，因为有些流通的人可能会赚取60英镑。

These coins, dated 2008 and bearing a mule error, are valuable to collectors. The error occurs when mismatched dies are used, and in this instance, it slipped into circulation unnoticed.

这些硬币，日期为2008年，带有m子错误，对收藏家很有价值。当使用不匹配的模具时，会发生误差，在这种情况下，它将循环浮出水面。

Normally, the date on a 20p coin appears on the reverse side, typically below the crown. However, in 2008, a small number of 20p coins were minted with the new obverse—the shield side—combined with the old reverse Tudor rose, and neither side displayed a date.

通常，20p硬币上的日期出现在反向侧面，通常位于皇冠下方。但是，在2008年，少数20p硬币被新的正面铸造（盾牌一侧）与旧的反向都铎式玫瑰相结合，两侧都没有显示约会。

An expert known online as the Coin Collecting Wizard explained: “Stop spending your 20p coins without checking them first because one from 2008 with no date is worth £60.

一位在网上被称为硬币收集巫师的专家解释说：“停止花20p硬币而不先检查它们，因为从2008年起，没有约会的人价值60英镑。

“Normally, the date on a 20p is on the reverse right under the crown. But in 2008, something strange happened.

“通常，20便士的日期在皇冠下面的反向。但是在2008年，发生了一些奇怪的事情。

A small number of 20ps were minted with a new obverse - the shield side paired with the old reverse Tudor rose but neither side has a date.

少数20Ps用新的正面铸造 - 盾牌侧与旧的反向都铎式玫瑰搭配，但双方都没有约会。

“This is what we call a mule error. When mismatched dies are used and this one slipped into circulation without anyone noticing.”

“这就是我们所说的m子错误。当使用错配死亡时，并且没有任何人注意到这一点。”

The good news is that these coins are “possible to find” despite being rare.

好消息是，尽管很少见，但这些硬币还是“有可能的”。

He continues: “Normally, 20p coins have the date on the back, but if you check and there's no date on either side, you might be holding the rare one.

他继续说：“通常，有20p硬币的日期在后面，但是如果您检查并且任何一侧都没有约会，则可能会持有稀有的日期。

“These undated 20ps are rare but not impossible to find in average condition. They go for £60 plus. People are still finding them in their change even 15 years later.”

“这些未注明日期的20ps很少见，但在平均状况下并不是不可能的。他们以60英镑的价格购买。人们甚至在15年后仍在寻找他们的变化。”

The Royal Mint states: “In November 2008, it came to light that a number of 20p coins had been incorrectly minted, resulting in the coins being undated.

皇家造币厂指出：“ 2008年11月，发现许多20p硬币被错误地铸造出来，导致硬币未注明日期。

"This problem affected less than 250,000 coins of the 136 million 20p pieces minted in 2008-09 and was due to the previous obverse (the ‘heads’ side) being used with the new reverse (the ‘tails’ side) design, meaning the year of issue did not feature at all.

“这个问题影响了在2008 - 09年铸造的1.36亿20便士中的25万个硬币，这是由于以前的正面（“头”一侧）与新的反面（'尾巴'侧）设计一起使用，这意味着发行的一年根本没有特色。

“These coins remain legal tender and still have a face value of 20p.”

“这些硬币仍然是法定货币，仍然具有20便士的面值。”
