    Just came across your videos; had no idea some of these were worth more than face value. Been keeping £2 coins since they came out and have about 400 of them. Just looked through and found about 50 commemorative ones, including 3 Commonwealth games (2 English, 1 welsh). Got a bit excited when I found I had 3 abolition of the slave trade with the edge writing upsde down since there are some on Ebay for hundreds of pounds, but soon found that that is utter bollocks!

    Loads of those I have never seen before. I do not go out of my way to get £2 coins, but I do check every one that comes my way. I guess the fact I live in 180 odd miles west of London might account for it in that almost everything had already been checked, re-checked, sifted and sorted by 10,000 people before it eventually arrives here (even though the Royal Mint is just up the road so to speak). Good luck, happy hunting

  • @goldbunny1973

    Last year I bought a 2016 £1 with the queen's head upside down. How rare/valuable is that? Should I hang onto it for 10yrs? I did laugh when the 2016 £1 coins were being listed on Ebay for crazy sums; Apparently the Royal Mint issued 500,000 early in 2016 when Official Release was 2017; They were supposed to be returned to the Mint but somehow ended up in Scotland; People thought they were FAKE £1 coins. I've been collecting them ever since : )

    Misaligned dots and weak strikes on the lettering around the edge of the collar are not really ‘errors’, they’re more like ‘variants’, like the lefty £1 coins are.

    A question :) if you got £400 of £2 coins from your bank (wonders) how many would be re-sellable on ebay?? and from your £400 investment how much profit would you make?? just stumbled on this vidio - pulls up a lot of questions :)

    • @reverendv8900
      @reverendv8900 4 года назад +1

      Go through every video, discount the time it takes to commentate and focus, add up the resale values that pop up in the top left and then subtract £2 for every one. The profit across the channel could well work out at something like £10 an hour when you take into account the time it takes to deal with eBay and postage. Of course, coin value can go up or down over years so some will be collected and stored for any length of time. Then there is AdSense money - this video alone might have made £400 or so.

    ERRORS: Buckle up, here come two errors in this video; first, the bag opened at 3:05, you didn't check the reverse of the first coin... second, the bag opened at 5:00, the Abolition of Slavery coin was discarded into the Technologies bag at 7:16. The second error wasn't anything to lose sleep over, but what about that first coin? What was it? Welsh Commonwealth Games? Navy error? Olympic Handover? Chances are it was a Technologies £2, but... will you sleep tight after reading this? Every time you wonder about that first coin it will be me living in your head rent free. Remember Vincent Price laughing at the end of Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' video? That is the sound you should now be hearing echoing inside your head. Come to think of it...I want to know what that coin was too. We're all DOOMED!

    They said that the Royal Mint estimates that 10% of the coins in circulation are fake.?
    They are so good now they are almost impossible to detect and the Royal mint refers to them as misaligned.
    Even the banks issued them.
    Are fake coins the issue that has been made out by the media ?

    Making profit from a coin collection requires a lot of time and patience. Have a look on eBay for the coin you have found, it will give you a rough idea as to whether it's worth the effort for you to bother selling. Personally I like collecting because they are miniature works of art and it's nice to try and complete a set.

    The Royal Mint are wrong! You can have an error or a variety.
    An error is a one-off thing, such as a die rotation, cud, brockage, off-center strike, wrong planchet, etc.
    A variety is a coin you can find more than one of, such as a doubled-die.
    The dateless 20p, 1983 New Pence 2p, Peter Rabbit with Extra Whisker and the WW1 Extra Flag £2 would all be considered varieties rather than errors.
    Well done on the NI £2!

    With that many off center it looks as though they were rushing production?🐎
