1986 £2 coin

Got in a shop on monday night, only saw it in my wallet today.

it says 1986 on the tail side of the coin with a thistle, and the queens head with all the latin * with two pounds written at the bottom. on the sides it says 'X111 COMMONWEALTH GAMES SCOTLAND 1986'

Anybody seen these before?

Could they be of any value?

 

i'd say they're probably worth £2 or there abouts mate.

 

i thought seeing it was a limited edition coin, which is thicker than the new coins, and that is gold as opposed to the two-colored coins that is may be collectable.

 

no idea man, never seen one in ma puff. didnae even know you could get one. keep a hold of it though. i had one of those £5 coins a few years ago but managed to get that desperate for * it got spent. stupid * like.

 

We have a weird society in the UK.

We are the only place in the world where someone could sell a £2 coin for a few bob. Keep hold of it mate as I'm sure someone will pay more for it. I smell an Ebay monent.......

 

I've got A limited edition 5 pound coin and two of the 2 pound coins, all 3 are silver. No idea what they're worth though! Probably be worth £9 for the lot lol

 

They were a limited edition and are only worth more than £2 to a collector

 

I've got a collection of foreign coins.

The euros have ruined it anyway! Had francs and pesetas, in fact had loads, from loads of countries, people used to help me out when coming home from abroad. Sometimes I feel like going and changing them all into Sterling, not sure you can even do that anyway!

 

What about thrupenny bits? Ever had a pair of those in yer hands?

 

how can you determine if its full/half sovereign?

 

At the moment.

Hold onto all the coins as to some they worth a lot more than face value.

 

The coin came mounted on a peice of card with some runner from the past (roger bannister, kip kenio nd a couple of others) I still have mine in the house.
