A rare 50p coin has sold for a whopping £181 after sparking a 66-way bidding war on eBay.
The silver coin was listed with a starting price of 99p before climbing considerably as bidders upped their offers over a number of days. The winning bidder will pay an additional £32.93 to have the item shipped to the United States.
The coin, which was struck in sterling silver, was minted earlier this year to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. Some 2,510 of the coins were produced by the Royal Mint.
