2008 Royal Mint undated 20p coin, of which 250,000 were minted, sold for £80 on eBay, 400 times its face value.

A rare undated 20p coin, struck without a year by The Royal Mint in 2008, sold on eBay for £80 - 400 times its face value. The Mint reports only about 250,000 of these coins were minted out of 136 million twenty pence pieces that month. Three such coins have been sold on eBay since July, fetching high profits. The coins are considered the "holy grail of change collecting" by The Britannia Coin Company of Royal Wootton Bassett.
