When did you last look at your coin collection? The answer is probably never – as many of us leave our silver and coppers discarded in old purses, piggy banks or down the back of the sofa. If this is the case for you though, you'll want to listen up! That's because these forgotten coins could actually make a pretty penny if you sell them. According to TikTok user @coincollectingwizard, who has around 133,000 fans on the platform, there are six 50p pieces that could make you minted.
So which should you keep an eye out for? The TikToker explained: "First the 2017 Royal Shield 50p, this has a mintage of 1.8million, and an uncirculated condition is worth £7, while a circulated is £1. "Next up is the Jemima Puddleduck 50p from 2016, this has a mintage of 2.1million. An uncirculated version can fetch up to £15, while a circulated one is £8.
"My favourite design is the Issac Newton 50p, it's £8 in uncirculated and £3 in circulated. Now for the holy grail, the Kew Gardens 50p, this has a mintage of only 210,000. A new condition is around £250, and circulated is £145." The final coins mentioned were the Flopsy Bunny 50p and Mrs Tittlemouse coins, which can make you more than £5 at auction.
While this may not seem like much, it is a 100% increase in value. Since hitting the internet, the clip snagged hundreds of likes and comments. One enthusiast gushed: "Got all of them!" Another praised: "Brilliant video," while a third boasted: "I have them all numerous times."
