The Coin Collector UK has alerted Britons to the error on the new one-pound coins which entered circulation in November
Brits are being nudged to check their wallets and coin hoards for an exceptionally rare error £1 coin that's slipped into circulation, boasting a novel King Charles III bee motif. The Coin Collector UK, a notable TikTok collector with a large audience, has pointed out that this peculiar coin might rake in over £1,000 due to a specific minting blunder.
The mistake was initially spotted by an observant Post Office worker. The prized error coin stands out, entirely gold, bereft of the signature gold rim and a nickel-brass centre. Although these coins have yet to be sold, he appraises their value at no less than £500, with the potential to attract bids past £1,000 from dedicated collectors. Wrapping up, he stated: "Errors like this are often snapped up by error collectors, and they aren't cheap," as reported by the Express.
An expert valuer commented: "But an estimate of £500 plus seems fair. If it goes to auction, who knows it could reach over £1,000 if someone really wants this rare coin in their collection."
