Two 'rarest' 50p coins could be in your change - and they're worth over £200
An expert shared how to spot these valuable coins that are highly sought-after by collectors. Brits have been urged to keep an eye out for two rare 50p coins currently in circulation. Combined these pieces could sell for as much as £230 to collectors. When it comes to rare coins you may think that it is only older pieces that are sought after by experts. While antique coins can be valuable, the same is true of modern ones. In a video shared to social media platform TikTok, an expert known as the Coin Collecting Wizard, alerted his followers to two particularly special coins. Both are still used in the UK today, having been minted in recent years. 'The top two rarest 50 pence coins you can find in your change,' he said. Firstly he described what is currently deemed by the Royal Mint as the 'rarest' 50p coin. This piece came as part of a new collection featuring King Charles III on the obverse following the death of Queen Elizabeth II. On its reverse is the picture of a fish - or an Atlantic salmon to be more precise. The expert continued: 'We start with the rarest 50p coin, which is this one right here. Known as the Atlantic salmon from 2023, this is a fairly new coin with only 200,000 out there in the wild.' However, there are a couple of markers to check on the coin to ensure it is valuable. He said: 'But you must make sure it is dated 2023 and has no privy mark on the King side of the coin. If you find this 50 pence, then you can easily sell this one for around £80 to collectors.' He then talked about another 50p coin which was previously known to be the rarest of its kind. The Kew Gardens coin, which features an image of the garden's famous pagoda. Although less rare, this coin tends to sell for even more than the salmon. 'This one is the second rarest 50 pence but actually, quite surprisingly, the most valuable,' he added. 'This is known as the Kew Gardens 50 pence from 2009 and because it's so old and only two or ten thousand were ever made, it makes this coin very valuable to collectors. 'Even though it's in second place as the rarest, if you find the Kew Gardens in your change then no matter the condition you are selling this for around £150.' On it's website, the Royal Mint notes that both these coins are rare. Rebecca Morgan, director of commemorative coin at The Royal Mint said: 'The releasing of mintage figures is an eagerly anticipated event among the coin collecting community – and this year is particularly exciting as we reveal the Atlantic Salmon as the rarest 50p in circulation. 'For the first time in 15 years, the highly collectable Kew Gardens 50p loses its top spot as the rarest in circulation with the Atlantic Salmon 50p splashing its way to number one. '2023 marked pivotal changes for the nation's coinage, including the introduction of coins celebrating King Charles III's coronation entering circulation. Finding these special designs, like the Atlantic Salmon, in your change is a win for all collectors.'

Brilliant theme park 90-minutes from Liverpool and Manchester that kids won't want to leave
This theme park in North Wales is set against the stunning backdrop of the Snowdonia mountains and home to a large variety of unique rides and nature-focused experiences This theme park with enough attractions to captivate both younger and older children is every parent's summer wish come true. It is even more enticing with it comes with a picturesque setting that offers a touch of escapism for grown-ups as well. There's absolutely no question that GreenWood theme park in North Wales boasts an idyllic location - proudly eco-friendly and nestled against the breathtaking Snowdonia mountain range. Should you be planning a family break in North Wales this year, or simply fancy a relatively straightforward day trip from Manchester, this park ranks among the finest attractions around. It comes after sunbed wars see Brits forced to queue for 'over an hour' just to get to the pool. The journey takes approximately 90 minutes by car from Manchester, but it follows one of the most uncomplicated routes possible (via the A55 beyond Llandudno and A5 through Bangor). The stress-free journey also provides magnificent coastal vistas along North Wales. As one Manchester Evening News writer discovered, travelling with two children aged 9 and 5, the theme park provides a thoroughly packed day out with an abundance of activities - plus a genuine diversity of rides that sets it apart from typical theme parks. Consider, for instance, its Green Dragon rollercoaster - marketed as the "world's first people-powered rollercoaster". It's apparently the only theme park attraction of its type in the world- but don't fret, it doesn't require everyone to run Flintstones -style to power the ride. The attraction utilises funicular technology, first introduced in Welsh slate mines two centuries ago. All passengers clamber into a carriage which descends a hill, powering the rollercoaster up the incline. There are plenty of very unique features to encounter at this family attraction. Another is the Barefoot Trail - where you kick off your shoes and stroll through the woodland, allowing your feet to feel an invigorating variety of surfaces from water to straw and stones. There is stilt walking for beginners, archery, and during the first week of the school summer holidays, there are virtually no queues for any of the 20+ rides across the site. The only unavoidable wait will likely be for one of the park's more spectacular highlights - the colossal Solar Splash water ride. Another world-first, this ride is powered by solar energy, and allows both kids and adults to zoom down two massive central chutes, or a spiral chute next to them, before making a splash landing at the end. All the wild woodland play features scattered across the site, add an extra dose of intrigue. The park is nestled against a hillside so be prepared for some gentle inclines as you explore the grounds. The on-site Woodbarn restaurant boasts a large soft play barn inside, ensuring your little ones are kept amused while you order food and wait for it to be served at your table. The attraction has recently introduced alpaca walks that you can book as an extra (for £20), where children aged over 4 accompanied by their parents can meet and feed the three resident alpacas on the site. You can then embark on a guided walk with these furry creatures around their enclosure. Treetop Towers, filled with slides and climbing adventures, are situated across the park, and you can walk up to the top of the site to take in the view from the Snowdonia View Point. Entry is £25 per person for anyone over 1m, while those under 1m pay £10. A family ticket saver option is also available, costing £95 for a family of four (saving you a bit at £23.75 each). GreenWood is offering a 'Pay Once, Visit Twice' deal for the summer holidays. If you visit between 19th July and 24th August, you can return within seven days at no extra cost. Dogs are also allowed in for free, provided they're well-behaved and kept on leads.

Maura Higgins' defiant stance as she's set for awkward Danny Jones run-in after kiss
Love Islander Maura Higgins and her I'm A Celebrity campmate Danny Jones stunned fans when they were spotted sharing a drunken kiss at a BRIT Awards afterparty earlier this year I'm A Celebrity campmates Maura Higgins and Danny Jones could be facing an awkward encounter at this year's National Television Awards, following their drunken kiss at a BRITs afterparty. Danny, 39, won the most recent series of ITV 's I'm A Celeb, and so will be showing up at the event - as will Maura. The video, which saw the two share a kiss, resulted in a dicey time for Danny's marriage to influencer and wife of 11 years, Georgia Horsley, 38. He has spent the year quietly attempting to repair their relationship after Georgia left the family home for a period of time to cool off. Danny and Georgia share their six-year-old son Cooper, and seem to have patched things up after what could have been a marriage-ending indiscretion on Danny's part. It comes after ITV makes major decision on I'm A Celebrity's future after talks with officials. While Danny attempted to win Georgia's trust back, Maura herself kept a low profile for a short time. Their National Television Awards appearance will be a test for Georgia, although a source points out they all knew their "paths were bound to cross at some point. Speaking to The Sun, they said: 'Danny is expected to attend the NTAs on September 10, as have all previous reigning jungle winners — and Maura is also going." The source added: 'There will have to be some clever choreography to ensure they don't end up next to each other when walking the red carpet, but they could both end up on stage if I'm A Celebrity wins. Maura won't be answering any questions about the kiss. She's put the incident behind her and feels she has nothing to be ashamed of." McFly star Danny has put on a united front with Georgia after the couple's testing year. The pair were all smiles as they attended the first of seven Wembley gigs for the Oasis reunion tour last month. Mum-of-one Georgia, 38, shared a black and white photo posted on her husband's Instagram Story. It showed her beaming as they made their way from Wembley Stadium. Danny was looking over at her as they shared a laugh between them, showing they've put their rocky patch behind them and have moved on. They were joined by Danny's mum, Kathy, who walked in between the pair in the candid snap. It's been a tough year for the couple, with the news of Danny's drunken BRITS kiss with Love Islander Maura sending shockwaves earlier this year. But lucky for Danny, it appears Georgia was willing to give their marriage another try, although the pair lay low on social media since the video surfaced in March this year. Meanwhile, Maura has been keeping herself busy with work, as well as buying her new house. The 34-year-old former Love Island contestant has earned an estimated £3.2 million in the years since she found fame on the ITV dating show back in 2019. And she has splashed the cash on a luxury new home - snapping up a five-bedroom property in the south east of England. The semi-detached house boasts an impressive garden and has huge, floor to ceiling windows that allow plenty of natural light to flood in.
