50p just sold for £820

Post by Puffin »

Finding a coin which is worth a small fortune is the stuff of dreams for every Change Checker. You may remember the excitement over the rarity of the Kew Gardens 50p earlier this year and the bidding frenzy that occurred on eBay shortly afterwards.

Well now there is a coin which has eclipsed the Kew Gardens, both in terms of scarcity, and the sheer scale of money changing hands.

This week, a UK 50 pence piece sold on eBay for £820. Or to put it another way, 1,640 times its face value!

Hamster Count 55. Then so far this year 0 to the Deus.
Denarius Count 7. Then so far this year 0.
