A coin expert revealed three 50p pieces which can sell for an eye-watering sum – and one coin is worth a huge £2,000 if you find it. Here's what you need to know
Rare coins can turn up in the most unexpected places, from your loose change to a forgotten corner of your attic.
A TikTok user, known as @CoinCollectingWizard, who amassed an impressive following of 181,000 followers, regularly shares tips on which coins to watch out for. In a recent video, he highlighted three 50p pieces that could fetch loads. He continued: "The error Benjamin Bunny coin has the Queen's head printed facing the wrong direction. When a coin is flipped over, the Queen's head should be facing to the left but on a rotation error coin, this would be different. Around £30 is what you can get for this coin."
He noted: "Around 2.2million of the Athletics 50p coin was minted and released into circulation in 2011. But this earlier version was minted in 2009 and is more valuable to collectors, if you have this coin dated 2009, then you have found it and it could sell for £250+."
