UK Error coins / Coin - A look at some of the variant 50p rare and error coins that can be found and worth thousands of pounds. Also a brief look at some key dates to look out for that are also worth more than face value.

Tip for anyone into coin collecting: work in a shop! It makes my day when a customer gives me a rare coin. I put it to the side and at the end of my shift my boss allows me to have it as part of my wages. (Although it kills me when I leave rare coins not realising I haven’t collected them yet or they are error coins but I didn’t realise). I’m currently making my way through 50p’s which now roughly totals £30 worth of coins. I’ve began adding £2 coins but not so sure of their rarity (it scares me to check because I’ll kick myself later if I had them and let them go)

I’ve worked in a shop for the past 10 years and my best find to date are not 1 but 3 Kew Gardens , four £2 NI commonwealth games, and at least 6 Jemima puddleduck but with more people collecting now I’m finding it harder to find any decent coins so it makes it even more exciting when I do.

Watched this video and very interesting. We have a 2009 Olympics high jump coin which I found in circulation 3 years ago. I am so glad that I have kept it. Also have one in the Blue Peter package which I bought on eBay for around £10, four years ago. The value seems to have increased in the past 2 years so definitely will hold onto it!

@gamingtutor45756 жыл бұрын
Steve Harris Not for Steve Harris it's not. But for coin collectors it is, because it's a hobby. Some pay 50 quid for a video game, because it's their hobby, and to them it's worth it. I enjoy collecting coins, so it's worth it. And btw, you're also paying for brilliant uncirculated, so you get mint coins, and not ones which have been stuck down the crevis of someone's couch. You don't look at hobbies like an accountant, judging what's a bargain. You go into it because you enjoy it.
@steveharris79386 жыл бұрын
I do collect coins, but you have to question the pricing surely. I enjoy it but look at the mark up.
@gamingtutor45756 жыл бұрын
I understand it is pricey. But you also get the album for your coins to go into. When coin collecting, especially these, you aren't looking at the face value of the coin, it's not an investment like silver stacking or stacking gold. Over time a full album will surely be collectible. But it's about the coins themselves, and it might have a face value of £2.60, but is worth much more to the collectors over a period of time.

0:44 I’m so sad about that one. I had one in the till at work but left it because I already had an Olympic swimmer 50p coin not realising the one in the till was an error one. I’m still hoping it’ll make a circle back to the shop eventually (hopefully my boss didn’t pick it up and keep it or give it to a customer who spent it outside of my area). I’m sure it’s been in my shop twice now and customers sometimes spend their change a few weeks-months later. But at the time we only had a few 50p’s in the till so it was needed for change.
