A hobby that gains followers and value over time
Coin enthusiasts are becoming relevant again as numismatics attract more followers. Some pieces become incalculably valuable over the years, and many people spend a significant part of their lives searching for the most precious objects.
Minting defects, uniqueness or the reason for their issue are some of the factors that increase the price of certain coins. Many of these are commemorative and their presence on the market is limited, which increases their value.
Added value through minting errors
Recently, a peculiar event took place when the National Police commemorated its 200th anniversary by putting into circulation a 2 euro coin. This coin, legal tender and usable for transactions throughout the Eurozone, caught the attention of collectors and numismatic enthusiasts.
On another occasion, on the occasion of 8M, International Women’s Day, a coin was issued in honor of Margarita Salas, a renowned Spanish biochemist and researcher. This piece, valued at 10 euros, can be purchased in the shop of the National Coin and Stamp Factory for a price of 72.60 euros.
An unexpected scientific error has been detected in this coin, which could significantly increase its value in the market of collectors and numismatic enthusiasts.
The error that can multiply the value of the coin
Deborah García, a doctor in Chemistry, has pointed out on social networks an anomaly in the representation of DNA on this coin. The phenomenon of isomerism, which refers to the arrangement of atoms in a molecule, has revealed a scientific incongruity that can have repercussions on the value of the numismatic piece.
García has explained in detail that the error consists in the rotation of the DNA chains represented on the coin. This peculiarity, which is evident within the purple circle of the symbol of the woman on the coin, has generated a debate among experts and collectors about its possible influence on the future value of the piece.
While some consider this error to be a mere design anomaly, others speculate that it could be an element that increases the interest and value of the coin over time. Those passionate about numismatics will closely observe the evolution of this situation.
