Coin collectors, take note! A recent TikTok revelation highlights four rare coins that could be worth a small fortune, urging enthusiasts to dig through their collections.
The 1933 penny tops the list, valued at approximately £130,000. With only six or seven believed to exist, this penny is a coveted prize at auctions.
Another noteworthy coin is the 1983 new Pence two-pence piece, which could net around £1,000 due to a typographical error. Despite the term 'new pence' being discontinued in 1982, a few coins were mistakenly minted in 1983.
Also on the list is the Aquatics 50p error coin, part of the 2012 London Olympics collection. Due to a printing error, some coins feature lines across the swimmer's face, making them rare and potentially worth up to £2,000.
Finally, the Kew Gardens 50p, minted in 2009 to celebrate Kew Gardens' 250th anniversary, is valued at up to £6,800. With only 210,000 minted, this coin is among the rarest in circulation.
These hidden treasures remind collectors that the worth of a coin often lies in its rarity and unique history. So, check your change – you might be sitting on a small fortune!
