Two old pennies can make you a millionaire – the dates you need to look out for

It's quite refreshing having a clear out at home. You might stumble on a old stash of DVDs, iconic video games, or better yet, a mega rare coin collection

A TikTok coin collector has revealed two old pennies that could make you a "millionaire" if you happen to have them lying around your home. The user, known as @thecoincollectoruk and boasting a following of 129,000, recently posted a video showcasing two old pennies with different dates.

Highlighting a coin from 1933, the user also mentioned a Queen Elizabeth piece from 1954. In the clip, the TikTok user said: "These two old pennies can make you a millionaire.

"There are two different dates you must look out for on your old pennies. The first is a George 5th penny from 1933, there are thought to be less than 10 of these."

They continued: "One of them resold at auction for £127,248 and others in the £70,000 to £80,000 range. It's definitely the most valuable penny to ever exist."

The user then shifted focus to the coin with Queen Elizabeth from 1954, which is extremely rare.

"There is only one of these known to have survived from a trial run of several hundreds according to the Royal Mint," they explained.

"This means the 1954 is also extremely rare penny, the last one sold in 1991 for £23,100. It's likely worth even more now with inflation accounted for."

Additionally, there's an "MS 63 version of the coin which could be worth up to £60,000".

Since the enlightening video was posted, it received 4,000 likes and over 400 comments.

One chimed in with: "Penny black is the most expensive penny," while another messaged: "Hi sir I have this coin."

Then, a third boasted: "I have four of these."

If you reckon you've got any of these rare coins lying around, it's worth sending a message to a coin whizz for a valuation – you could be sitting on a goldmine!
