Wootton Bassett's Minting Marvel

Wootton Bassett的Minting Marvel

RWB Auctions in Wootton Bassett recently saw a fascinating piece of numismatic history cross the block: a 1973 10p coin mistakenly minted in bronze. This isn't your average pocket change. While it bears the familiar crowned lion and Queen Elizabeth II portrait, its bronze hue sets it apart. Made from 97% copper instead of the usual cupronickel, this error coin is exceptionally rare. The Royal Mint themselves confirmed the error back in 1974, stating it was “struck, inadvertently, on a bronze coin-blank intended for another denomination.”

伍顿·巴塞特（Wootton Bassett）的RWB拍卖最近看到了一块令人着迷的钱币历史跨越了街区：1973年的10p 10p硬币，错误地用青铜铸造。这不是您平均的口袋更换。尽管它带有熟悉的狮子和伊丽莎白女王肖像，但其青铜色调使它与众不同。这款错误硬币由97％的铜制成，而不是通常的库班克尔，非常罕见。皇家造币厂本身在1974年证实了这一错误，并指出，“无意中击中了旨在另一个宗派的铜币币。”

The owner held onto this little treasure for over 50 years! Christopher Collects from RWB Auctions noted that the owner achieved a good price. It goes to show, as he said, "checking your change with an eagle eye can still turn up rare and unusual coins."

所有者保留了这个小宝藏已有50多年了！克里斯托弗（Christopher）从RWB拍卖会上收集指出，所有者的价格取得了不错的价格。正如他所说，这表明：“用鹰眼检查您的变化仍然会变成稀有和不寻常的硬币。”

Olympic Gold (and Silver and Bronze!) on eBay

eBay上的奥林匹克黄金（以及银色和青铜！）

But Wiltshire's not the only place where rare coins are making waves. Keep an eye on your 50p coins! A London 2012 Olympics 50p coin, featuring the offside rule, sold for over 21 times its face value on eBay. Yes, that's right – a 50p coin fetched £10.51!

但是威尔特郡并不是唯一稀有硬币引起海浪的地方。密切关注您的50便士硬币！伦敦2012年奥运会50p硬币，列出了越位规则，其售价超过21倍，其面值超过eBay。是的，是的 - 50p硬币以£10.51获取！

The Allure of the Error

错误的魅力

It's not just officially recognized rarities that are attracting attention. Error coins, like the misaligned 50p that sold for £50, are also proving popular. These imperfections, often overlooked, can significantly increase a coin's value.

引起人们关注的不仅是正式认可的稀有性。错误的硬币，就像以50英镑售出的50便士一样，也很受欢迎。这些常常被忽视的不完美可能会大大增加硬币的价值。

Beyond Wiltshire: Parisian Gold

超越威尔特郡：巴黎黄金

While Wiltshire’s auctions offer exciting finds, the world of rare coins extends far beyond. Consider the historic gold coin collection auctioned for $3.48 million in Paris. This collection, amassed by Paul Nars, included ancient coins from the Macedonian Empire and a series of French royal coins. While not directly related to Wiltshire, it illustrates the global appeal and potential value of rare coins.

尽管威尔特郡的拍卖会提供令人兴奋的发现，但稀有硬币的世界却远远超出了。考虑在巴黎以348万美元拍卖的历史悠久的黄金硬币收藏品。保罗·纳尔斯（Paul Nars）积累的该系列包括马其顿帝国的古代硬币和一系列法国皇家硬币。虽然与威尔特郡没有直接关系，但它说明了稀有硬币的全球吸引力和潜在价值。

So, What's the Takeaway?

那么，收获是什么？

The rare coin market is alive and well. Whether it's a minting error from the 70s or a commemorative coin from the 2012 Olympics, there's value to be found in the most unexpected places.

稀有的硬币市场还活着。无论是70年代的铸造误差还是2012年奥运会的纪念硬币，都可以在最意外的地方找到价值。
