If You Live In The UK,

or have visited, 


you cold have a fortune in your pocket, image Britannia Coin Company, this 50 pence coin could bring you up to £2,500! the aquatics-themed 50p was one of 29 different commemorative coins issued by The Royal Mint in 2011, with each coin paying tribute to a different Olympic sport. However, only 600 of the ‘lines over face’ 50p coins are believed to have been issued before the design was suddenly changed, this particular coin was still sealed in its original Royal Mint presentation card, with the plastic covering protecting the coin’s brilliant uncirculated finish, Jon White, Director of www.britanniacoincompany.com, explained: “The ‘lines over face’ 50p is easily the most valuable cupro-nickel coin that exists, and will make a sterling addition to this buyer’s collection. The coin is heralded for its rarity as only 600 were issued, making it more than worth giving your own coins a quick once-over before using them and checking behind your sofa too, "There are so many coins with significant value to collectors, meaning you could be sitting on an undiscovered fortune if you catch a glimpse of an interesting design out of the corner of your eye.” so start checking your change now, for more about this and other UK coins to look out for have a look here, and not leaving any of our American friends out, have a look in your coin jars, especially for this one,
