Rich by accidentally picking up a coin of 7.4 billion VND in a pile of toys

The man owns a huge sum of up to £ 270,000 (about VND 7.4 billion) from an ancient coin he accidentally picked up in the toy of his 4-year-old son.

According to Daily Mail, the coin that the 35-year-old unnamed man picked up is one of the rarest currencies in the UK . Both sides of the coin are printed with a special picture of the birth of Queen Anne Vigo in 1702.

This 300-year-old coin is also one of 20 gold coins made from jewels on ships captured in Vigo Bay, Spain.

Revealing to the press, the man said that the coin he accidentally picked up in his son's toy box 30 years ago, then gave it to his son.

Recently, when he saw the most prominent yellow-colored coin in his son's penny coin, he took it to the experts to find out the value to be surprised.

Antique expert Gregory Tong said the estimate of the value of the coin is about £ 200,000 - £ 250,000. However, when auctioning this coin with a starting price of £ 225,000, it is expected that the total value that this man could recover could be more than £ 270,000 (about VND 7.4 billion).

The two sides of the coin cost more than 7 billion to print a special picture - (Daily Mail screenshot).

"When I told him the value of the coin, he did not believe. He even came to see me twice," shared expert Gregory Tong.

Meanwhile, the coin owner said: "My grandfather traveled around the world and collected coins from countries. He gave me a coin bag to play. When I was a kid, I used coins. That time, the coins seemed to be forgotten until my grandfather passed away and I handed that coin bag back to my son. "

According to coin experts, this value absolutely cannot have any other copies.
