I know yeah,I think there's something satisfying about seeing these certain coins,could be the thickness of the coin as well as the fact they're £2 coins,£1 & 50p (value wise)...if it was any others ie 20p 10p 5p or less,don't think I'd be interested lol

The two-colour £2 coins were introduced in 1997, so what you have there is an old £2 coin. It was minted in 1986 with a mintage of just more than 8 million, commemorating the Commonwealth Games held in Edinburgh. It's currently worth about £2.50, but its value could increase by a few pounds.
