But there are some extremely rare 2p coins lying around, and if you have one, it might be worth saving...or selling, it's honestly up to you.

In fact, he's built a following of around 198,000, and after allegedly getting his hands on one of the rare 2p coins - he showed others what to look out for.

事实上，他已经拥有了大约 198,000 名追随者，据称在获得一枚罕见的 2 便士硬币后，他向其他人展示了需要注意的事项。

In the video, he revealed: "Did you know about the New Pence 2p coin worth £1,000?

在视频中，他透露：“你知道价值 1000 英镑的新便士 2 便士硬币吗？

"Don't worry though this one is 1971 and not the rare date.

“别担心，虽然现在是 1971 年，而且这个日期并不罕见。

"Want to know what rare New Pence coins to look out for, keep watching.

“想知道有哪些稀有的新便士硬币值得关注，请继续关注。

"After the design changed from New Pence to Two Pence in 1982, a mistake was made during production of a small number of 1983 coins."

“1982年设计从新便士改为两便士后，在生产少量1983年硬币时出现了错误。”

He went on to explain how these newer coins were accidentally made with the old inscription 'New Pence' - making them extremely rare.

他接着解释了这些新硬币是如何意外地带有旧铭文“新便士”的，这使得它们极其罕见。

He added: "If it says New Pence on the reverse instead of the words Two Pence then you have found it.

他补充道：“如果背面写着“新便士”而不是“两便士”，那么你就找到了它。

"If you are lucky enough to find a 1983 New Pence 2p in your change, then it is worth around £1,000.

“如果你足够幸运，在找零时找到一张 1983 年新便士 2 便士，那么它的价值约为 1,000 英镑。

"You are more likely to find the coin in the 1983 Royal Mint set though as this is where the mistake happened."

“你更有可能在 1983 年皇家造币厂找到这枚硬币，因为这就是错误发生的地方。”

Collectors have shared that they found the coin in their collection, but it was once valued at £400.

收藏家们表示，他们在自己的收藏中发现了这枚硬币，但它的价值一度高达 400 英镑。

The error has sky-rocketed the value, and who knows if you hold onto it, one day you could be receiving a lot more than £1000 for it.

这个错误使得它的价值飙升，谁知道如果你坚持下去，有一天你可能会收到超过 1000 英镑的钱。
