An expert revealed details of three coins that combined could be worth almost £130,000.
Brits have been urged to check their spare change for any of three coins which could help them “take an early retirement” if found.
An expert, known online as the Coin Collector UK, revealed details of the coins in a TikTok video and said they could be worth almost £130,000 combined.
According to him, you should be on the lookout for a penny coin from 1933, a 50 pence coin from 2011 and a £2 coin from 2014.
He said: “You can take an early retirement if you find these coins.”
Firstly he explained more about the rare 1p coin from 1933.
“One of these old pennies sold at auction for £127,000. The year you need to find is 1933. Less than 10 of these were ever produced.
“These are worth huge money with one selling for well over £100,000 pounds. And another for about £86,000.”
Next he revealed that a 50p coin from 2011 to mark the 2012 London Olympics with a specific error is worth a lot of money.
“The Olympic Aquatics coin can be worth £2,000 if you find the error.
“You need to check if the lines are covering the face like the ones on the rest of the coin. It's thought that only 500 were produced before they changed it to this design without the lines.”
Lastly, if you have a £2 coin from 2014 sporting a design of Lord Kitchener plus a specific error you could be quids in.
The error is that the coin is missing the words “two pounds” on the side with the Queen’s face.
He added: “Finally, this Lord Kitchener £2, which you can find in your change can be worth £800. If yours doesn't say ‘two pounds’ at the bottom, then you are onto a winner.
“Only a handful of these have been found. This is called a mule era. So get looking for any of these coins in your change.”
