Rare 50p coins featuring Olympic swimmers are selling for hundreds or even thousands of pounds online. One sold for £410 last week and a similar version sold for £10,100 in June.

Valuable: The original accidentally incorporated wavy lines obscuring the swimmer's face Only 600 were released before the mistake was spotted and the coin re-minted. Until the five-figure record price was reached on eBay in June, rare 'wavy lines' coins were selling for £800. It is not the only 50p piece that attracts collectors - but many are perfect specimens.
