The new 2019 Peter Rabbit 50p coin was only rolled out three days ago, but it's already prompting bidding wars on eBay.
The coin went on sale for just £10, but is now fetching as much as £500 on the online bidding platform - almost 50 times as much as its original price.
The 50p coin is a coloured edition featuring Beatrix Potter favourite Peter on the front, holding a paw to his chin.
Previous Peter Rabbit editions have entered circulation over the last three years, however this coin - a commemorative- will only be available from Royal Mint.

The Ebay listings for the Peter Rabbit 2019 50p coin fetch as high as £499.99 while several other start at £100 or £110 (seen)
However now lucky buyers of the coin have already taken to eBay, where re-sellers are offering their coins to the highest bidder.
More modestly priced coins are being sold at between £6 and £10, but others sell are being listed for as much as £500.
'Limited edition rare coin,' reads one post, advertising the piece at £100.
Some sellers are even taking bids for their pre-orders: 'I have this as a confirmed order, expected within 10 working days though probably much sooner,' one reads.
Several adverts of the nature can be found on eBay's website.
The only way to get your hands on the new coin is to get it from Royal Mint, unless you hop over to Ebay - pictured
The new design is the fourth coin depicting Peter Rabbit to be minted onto a 50p piece by the Royal Mint.
The coin is one of four new coins to be added to the mint's Beatrix Potter collection, which was first launched in March 2016 to commemorate 150 years since her birth.
Every March since there has been a new set of coins featuring some of Potter's most beloved characters including Jeremy Fisher, Benajmin Bunny, Tom Kitten, the Tailor of Gloucester, Flopsy Bunny and Mrs Tittlemouse.
In last year's 2018 coin, Peter Rabbit – arguably the author's most celebrated creation – is shown gleefully gnawing on several swiped carrots.
The four coins from last year featured (clockwise) Peter Rabbit, Flopsy Bunny, a helpful mouse from 'The Tailor of Gloucester' and Mrs Tittlemouse
The 2017 coin featured Peter hopping away, while the 2016 version showed him holding onto the lapels of his trademark blue jacket.
In total, 30,000 limited editions of the coin are up for grabs for the quickest collectors out there.
Each image embossed on the coin is a painstaking recreation of the hand-painted illustrations which brought the books to life, the Mint has said.
The government-owned company, which operates on a 34-acre site in South Wales, can produce almost five billion coins a year.

The 50p coi...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
