Everyone urged to check purses immediately for 50p coins that could be worth over £150 each

All Brits are being urged to check their change for a 50p coin that is selling for over £150. We've all got bits of spare change dotted about the place - whether it be in your handbag, car, wallet, or down the back of the sofa - but it could be worth a lot more than you first thought.

Money website Change Checker has issued a list of the UK’s most sought-after coins in circulation in the last three months. The list gives an idea of which coins are currently worth more than their face value due to popularity or rarity.

The list is broken down into three sections: the rarest 50 pence pieces, A to Z 10p coins and £2s currently in circulation. The Kew Gardens 50p has once again topped the most wanted 50p coin index.
