One such coin is The Snowman, which was released in time for Christmas.

The 2008 The Snowman uncirculated 50p coin is currently listed for a whopping price of £500 on the auction site, but is it really worthy of such a high price?

At Christmas, most shoppers are willing to splurge and spend cash on friends and family, but when it comes to “rare” listings of coins on the popular auction site, experts warn shoppers to beware of one thing.

The uncirculated 2008 The Snowman coin has been listed on eBay by the seller, who trades under the name, “magnum-2222” for a whopping £500, who furthermore demands another £7.60 to cover delivery costs.
