他告诉他的追随者：“这枚旧便士价值 20 万英镑。这是 1952 年的英国便士。

“This intriguing proof coin is the rarest proof penny of the entire series of copper and bronze pennies.

“这枚有趣的精制硬币是整个铜质和青铜便士系列中最稀有的精制便士。

“It wasn't known that these pennies existed until one came to auction almost 30 years ago.”

“直到近 30 年前，人们才知道这些便士的存在。”

The expert continued: “The existence of this unique 1952 proof penny was not known publicly until its initial appearance at a numismatic auction in October of 1997, some 45 years after it was struck.

这位专家继续说道：“这枚独特的 1952 年精制便士的存在直到 1997 年 10 月首次出现在钱币拍卖会上才被公众所知，距其铸造约 45 年。

“乔治六世 1952 年精制便士仍然是一件独特的作品，这或许是可以理解的，因为国王于 1952 年很早就去世，并于 2 月 6 日去世。

“A lovely example went up for auction recently and sold for £200,000. So it is 100 percent a coin to look out for.”

“最近有一件可爱的作品被拍卖，并以 20 万英镑的价格售出。因此，它百分百是值得留意的硬币。”
