I Heard Kew Gardens Ones Are Rare, Can Anyone Confirm And If So, What’s Its Value?
Hi Saul, they are the rarest 50p in circulation – just 210,000 were struck for use in change. There was some speculation on prices stoked by press interest earlier in the year but the value has settled down now – you can expect to get between £20-£30 on eBay for a good condition coin. Which isn’t a bad return for 50p! Thanks, Robin
I also have a kew garden 50p if Anyone’s interested?!?
I have a Handball Coin, what is it worth please?
Hi Anthony, you may well be able to find a collector who is missing the coin from their collection who is willing to pay over face value. As it stands though it is still a legal tender coin, and it is only a couple of years old. Coins usually take a good few years if they are to appreciate in value. You can find out more info and mintage figures etc. here on our sister site Change Checker: http://www.changechecker.org/coin-details.aspx?coinId=79
