Why is the 2016 Peter Rabbit 50p Exciting Great Britain? Are You Looking to Buy Peter Rabbit Coins? Rather than waste your time trying to auction the coin, you'd be better off spending it. The half whisker is part of the design which all 9.6 million of the 2016 coins have. Yes, you will see them being offered for huge amounts on auction sites like eBay, but they never actually sell. Sadly the 'half whisker' being rare is a myth. There were 9.6 million of the 2016 Peter Rabbit coins alone issued into circulation, so you can only imagine how many times each day we're contacted by someone who has found one in their change and wants to know how much it is worth. The coins are worth their face value and are currently selling on eBay for anywhere from a penny to £2 if you're lucky. It's certainly a good find, but unfortunately it's not going to make you rich. We're sorry to tell you your Peter Rabbit 50p (or other Beatrix Potter 50p) is worth just that - 50p.Ĭhances are you're on this blog because you've found a Peter Rabbit, or one of the other Beatrix Potter coins, in your change.
