How 20c could be worth $800: Rare coins with a 'wavy baseline' get more valuable every year

Info - Viral - Fun

Australians are being urged to check their 20c coins because they could be worth up to $800.

The rare coins, minted in 1966, are highly sought after by collectors because the number 2 has a wavy baseline.

With ordinary 20c pieces the number two has a straight base line.

Coin enthusiast Facebook group Detecting Downunder posted a reminder on how to spot the rare coins on Sunday night.

'The way to identify a wavy baseline 20c is it first has to have been minted in 1966,' Detecting Downunder wrote.
Then look at the bottom section of the number '2' stamped on the side of the coin displaying the platypus.

'On a normal coin, the top and bottom edges of the baseline are straight, while on a wavy baseline coin, the upper edge has a distinctive wave to it.'
