2007 年铸造的一批 2 英镑硬币上刻有 1807 年的日期，其中两枚现已在 eBay 上以 28 英镑和 25.74 英镑的价格出售。

The coins were produced to celebrate the bicentenary of the Slave Trade Act of 1807 - which made it illegal to trade slaves inside the British Empire.

这些硬币是为了庆祝 1807 年《奴隶贸易法》颁布二百周年而制作的，该法规定在大英帝国境内买卖奴隶是非法的。

These two examples are from the Piedfort silver edition - making them particularly desirable.

这两个例子来自 Piedfort 银版 - 这使得它们特别受欢迎。

The £28 sale was finalised on August 31, following 11 bids on eBay, while the £35.74 sale was finalised on September 7, following 17 bids.

经过 eBay 上的 11 次竞价，28 英镑的拍卖于 8 月 31 日最终敲定，而 35.74 英镑的拍卖在 17 次竞价后于 9 月 7 日敲定。

According to the Britannia Coin Company website: "In a standard weight of 24.00 grams, this £2 is struck in .925 sterling silver with a band of fine gold plating around the edge reminiscent of the Two Pounds in your change."

据不列颠硬币公司网站介绍：“这枚 2 英镑的标准重量为 24.00 克，采用 0.925 纯银铸造，边缘镀有一条纯金带，让人想起零钱中的两英镑。”

The website states that there were 3,990 of the Piedfort silver 1807 coins issued in total.

该网站称，1807 年皮德福特银币总共发行了 3,990 枚。

Regular versions of the 1807 coin are more common - with 8,445,000 minted in total - and usually only worth their £2 face value.

1807 年硬币的普通版本更为常见 - 总共铸造了 8,445,000 枚 - 通常只值 2 英镑面值。

The coin features the words "An Act For The Abolition Of The Slave Trade" around the date.

硬币上刻有“废除奴隶贸易法案”的字样。

The zero forms part of a chain design, which is broken to signify the end of slavery.

零是链条设计的一部分，链条被打破就意味着奴隶制的结束。

The "heads" side has a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.

“头像”一侧有伊丽莎白二世女王的肖像。

It also features the inscription "Am I Not A Man, And A Brother" - a phrase associated with the abolition.

它还刻有“Am I Not A Man, And A Brother”字样——这是与废奴有关的短语。

The sale comes after another kind of £2 coin attracted attention on eBay - selling once for £23 and once for £26.

此次拍卖是在另一种 2 英镑硬币在 eBay 上引起关注之后进行的，一次售价为 23 英镑，一次售价为 26 英镑。

这枚硬币于 2018 年铸造，刻有第一次世界大战诗人威尔弗雷德·欧文 (Wilfred Owen) 的诗句。
