您是否发现过价值不菲的稀有硬币？如果答案是否定的，那么也许今天终于是你的时刻了

据一位 TikTok 用户称，某款 20 便士的售价可能比其面值高出数百美元，但在你得意忘形之前，你需要搜索一下一个细节。

TikTok user @CoinCollectingWizard has revealed how a rare 20p coin with no date could be worth a small fortune.

TikTok 用户@CoinCollectingWizard 透露，一枚没有日期的稀有 20 便士硬币可能价值不菲。

The coin collecting enthusiast shared the information in a video post which garnered hundreds of likes and some comments.

这位钱币收藏爱好者在视频帖子中分享了这一信息，该视频帖子获得了数百个点赞和一些评论。

He started with: “Can you spot the rare 20p coin with no date?

他首先说道：“你能找到那枚罕见的没有日期的 20 便士硬币吗？

“This rare 20p coin sells for £50. This 20p is known as the undated 20p mule error, considered by man as on of the holy grails of UK change collecting. The undated 20p is always at the top of any coin collector’s wish list.”

“这枚罕见的 20 便士硬币售价 50 英镑。这个 20 便士被称为无日期 20 便士骡子错误，被人们认为是英国找零的圣杯之一。无日期的 20 便士始终是所有硬币收藏家的愿望清单中的首位。”

He revealed how the coin was released in 2008, but an “unknown amount” of these 20p pieces were struck with the wrong dye, resulting in no date on the obverse and reverse side.

他透露了这枚硬币是如何在 2008 年发行的，但其中“数量不明”的 20 便士硬币使用了错误的染料，导致正面和反面都没有日期。

The user claimed this happened due to a mix up at the Royal Mint when the Royal Shield of Arms design was introduced. The Royal Mint confirmed this is the first time in over 300 years where a coin entered circulation without a date.

该用户声称，发生这种情况是由于皇家造币厂在引入皇家盾徽设计时发生了混淆。英国皇家造币厂证实，这是 300 多年来首次没有日期的硬币进入流通。

“It makes it extremely sought after by coin collectors,” he concluded. “So always check your change.”

“这使得它深受钱币收藏家的追捧，”他总结道。 “所以一定要检查你的零钱。”

And fans rushed to the comments section thanking the user for the information, while others admitted to owning a kind.

粉丝们纷纷涌向评论区，感谢该用户提供的信息，而其他人则承认自己拥有一种。

Wondering if you have a rare coin in your pocket?

想知道您的口袋里是否有一枚稀有的硬币吗？

Here’s how you can spot a hidden gem in your stash…

以下是您如何发现藏品中隐藏的宝石的方法……

Firstly, examine the coin’s date – this is one of the easiest ways to tell if a coin is rare. Also check for errors, because this tends to affect its rarity as well.

首先，检查硬币的日期——这是判断硬币是否稀有的最简单方法之一。还要检查是否有错误，因为这也会影响其稀有性。

But more importantly, the coin’s mintage is what could signify how scarce it really is. For example, if there’s fewer coins out there in circulation, everyone would be racing to get their claws on it.

但更重要的是，硬币的发行量可以表明它的稀缺程度。例如，如果流通中的硬币减少了，每个人都会竞相抓住它。
