Great video, CC. It's safe to say, I need them all for my collection.. lol.😂

[@ChangeChecker]

Thank you! Best of luck getting hold of them. Have you tried swapping on the Change Checker Community Facebook group?

[@Paranoid-Philosopher]

@@ChangeChecker I'm thinking about buying them or swapping them in the next few months..

[@perrymarie4794]

Thanks for watching Steve!

[@dalehorne9815]

These coins are still legal tender. Rare to find but if found a couple of them over the years. Feel privileged to find one.

[@heftysack3094]

All the years I've been coin collecting and this is the first time I've even bothered to hear any information and mintages about the old £2 coins.

[@ChangeChecker]

Do you have any of the old £2 coins?

[@Paranoid-Philosopher]

Same. I need to get them all for the collection..

[@heftysack3094]

I dont have any either sadly so it would be nice to get atleast one then i can say I've got one atleast.

[@Paranoid-Philosopher]

@@heftysack3094 It would be nice. I'm thinking of buying them. Btw, nice profile picture. Lol. 👍

[@peterslevin416]

I thought they were all still legal tender as I think they weren't actually withdrawn according to the change checker guide.?

[@tonymiller1862]

i have enough luck to have all 7 of them and fraimed to and is looking great on my wall. thankyou for letting us know the mintage figures

[@TheRyanshand]

I just came across the thistle one and the claim of rights in an old bag of coins I had stashed away in my drawers for years. Can't remember where I got them from but I'm over the moon I have them :)

[@nannysoocoinseeker2886]

Very interesting 📹, I have seen some of these coins for sale and on change checker but didn't know that they had actually been in circulation. I do prefer the Bi metallic £2 coins if I'm honest though.

[@ChangeChecker]

They were mainly struck for collectors, but could be found in circulation from 1986 to 1996. Very interesting coins to own. Which is your favourite bi-metallic £2 Suzanne?

Great video!

[@ChangeChecker]

Thanks Olive!

[@AllotmentDiggers]

I have them all the claim of rights was the toughest to find, Ps when is your team back in Manchester, I missed you last time you were in the Trafford center

[@ChangeChecker]

Fantastic, that's a really great collection you've got there! Congrats on finding the Claim of Right too :) It's a shame you missed us at Manchester. We try to get to different places each time we do an event, but hopefully we'll see you at one soon!

[@Alice-jj5ti]

I have some of these because my mum kept some when she was a child 💖

[@ChangeChecker]

That's great Alice and well done Alice's mum for keeping hold of them. I think it's really special to be able to own these coins and preserve the history of the UK's very first £2 coins.

[@_Sodapopp]

I found a Charles Darwin £2 and the writing on the side is upside down (on the origin of species 1859) does that make it an error and is it worth anything? And the dots around the outer part of the queens face are badly off centred

[@ChangeChecker]

Hi, we actually put a blog together about some of the mis strikes found on coins and both the disappearing dots and upside down edge lettering are explained. You can find out all about these mis strikes here: www.changechecker.org/2016/06/24/mis-strikes-and-myths/

[@iTz3L1TEFUZE]

How much are these coins going for?

[@madcloisfan]

I have 2 of them. The 1986 and the Claim of rights

[@jackiebartle5051]

Any ideas on the value now?

I have the same two pound coin 1986

[@emilydallaway8293]

1st viewer R these still in circulation

[@vortex4u952]

No sorry

[@ChangeChecker]

Woohoo, very speedy Emily! Unfortunately these coins were only in circulation from 1986 to 1996 when they were replaced with the bi-metallic £2 coin. You can still find them on the secondary market, or by swapping with other collectors.

[@emilydallaway8293]
