A 50p coin that was released into circulation in 2009 has sold for £175 on eBay. 50 bids were made for the coin before it eventually sold.
Just 210,000 coins featuring the distinctive Kew Gardens design were minted during its original release. The coin features the famous Chinese Pagoda at the Royal Botanic Garden on the tails side, reports LincolnshireLive.
A re-circulated version of the iconic coin was minted in 2019, as part of a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the 50p coin. As a much higher number of this coin was minted, it is considerably less valuable to collectors.
