A rare Beatrix Potter coin listed for £150,000 on eBay in Scotland is up for grabs in Suffolk for just under £2.
The six figure tag has been grabbing headlines with many examples of the 50p listed for nearly 80,000 times less than the asking price in Glasgow.
In Suffolk, one such 50p is being listed in the Felixstowe area and also depicts the author's famous character Benjamin Bunny, from The Tale of Benjamin Bunny.
The asking price for this particular "extremely rare" coin is £1.90 - a steal in comparison to those competing for the Glasgow coin.
A similar situation was seen in Norfolk, where the same type of coin was listed in Norwich for £1.

The coin was minted in 2017 based on the story published in 1904.
The £150,000 coin was listed in Glasgow by eBay user Bargaintoolsandgoods and is described as "uncirculated" which means it is not in mint condition.
