Details of the auction and which cause the money raised will go to have yet to be announced.

However, there has been interest from around the world, on social media for the item.

One man from Pennsylvania, United States, has already asked about the size of the coat.

Whit size?

Yes, like this one to which I have contributed more than once. I live in the US, but I LOVE Shetland. https://t.co/i6U6cIlff0

Despite the interest in the coat, some people are still sad the actor has hung it up and left the show.

Wish you were still using it! #Shetland
