We saved £2 coins for years. Was well over £2000 worth when we took them to the bank. Never knew there was edition coins. Got quite a few hundred quids worth in a bottle now in the cupboard. Think I'll go check them now.
idk why but this was so soothing and his voice reminds me of old childhood minecraft youtubers for some reason?? I miss the simple times :( its comforting
I would like them to do a 4 coin dog set English bull terrier to represent England, Irish Terrier to represent Ireland, Welsh Terrier to represent Wales and a Scottish Terrier to represent Scotland.
This is not really an interest of mine and was randomly suggested by RUclips, but there is something really satisfying and endearing about watching someone engage in their hobbies rather contently. New suscriber here 😃
First time i've come across these videos. Is it me or is this soothing to watch? I'm fascinated, so much so I hit the 'subscribe' button. I collect £2 coins myself.
I was very lucky with some change given to me in B&Q. Four two pound coins and they all are 2016 William Shakespeare and they are worth more than face value. Its thanks to watching this dude that I'm kinda getting into coin collecting.
Every now and again I get recommended something out of the ordinary. Last time it was "The lock picking lawyer" and I am still addicted to his channel. I suspect this one may be similar.
I noticed that too, at 5.38 on the video when he lines up 'standing' you can see both the '+" signs just to the left...they are not in the same place on the rims. I don't know anything about coins, so I am not sure if this is significant, but it certainly looked different to me.
I think your 2015 coin might be a die proofing coin. These are used to check dies before using them, but the coins are not washed or tumbled after they are struck.
When I was growing up in the sixties you could pick a lot of coins out of your change, even 60's Lizzie II coins...the prooflike 1961 half crown for one. It was a way to get into coin collecting and make a few pounds . The two pound coin which he thinks is strange is a copy...from a mile off !
Yeah interesting. We are saving £2 coins but not for collection just trying to fill a very large jar. I’m gonna look through and if I find the one you need I’ll ship it to ya
Seriously though, people name calling, this tells me that you wish you had a collection like this that’s why you watched it in the first place. Sick collecy
Well spotted matey The moody one I in the last 5 yrs have started collecting Speedway signed photo s Which led to Rider caps and trying to put together a collection of speedway tracks Badges Kind of one from each track Closed ones as well KEEP it up mate you started young Good move
Hey! Just found your video, I really enjoyed it. I sometimes help my friends, who owns a parking company, count coins and putting them in those small bags. From now on I’m going to look more closely!
First: Go to Britain if not already Second: go to a bank and get a small amount of coins Third: slowly increase the value of the order Fourth: then you have a bag of £500 in £2 And done!
If you like hunting coins by looking at their edges for errors, try the Native American $1 coins from the US. There are some errors where the edge lettering is missing so no year nor mint shows.
I think I have a very rare error £2 coin in my collection I think it’s the first of its kind. The last two digits of the year are printed on but they look a bit off and if you look at from a angle you can see that they aren’t printed properly also if you run your finger across them you can’t feel them as if they aren’t printed. I also have another £2 coin which I like too call the queen wiv a booger Cose the queen head has extra dye on the nose.
The universe works in strange ways. I literally came across this video on Guy Fawkes Day, so I was surprised to see 1605 on the coin knowing it’s significance. Being here in California, the only £2 coins I’ve come across were rejects at a CoinStar machine.
What is the rearest 1990s £2 coin when I was a child my father bought them from a magazine for £5 each we had twelve we no longer have them but if we did what would the be worth
Articles online says all post 1997 £2 coins are only worth face value and pre 1997 coins are worthless and can't be spent in shops and can't be cashed in at banks.
Hi; Very interesting. I decided to collect £2 coins when I found 3 different ones in my pocket about a month ago. Imagine my surprise when I stumbled across your RUclips channel. can I ask you a cupel of daft questions, when did the £2 coin first cum out, and wear do you get all of your coins from, that you sort through ? Keep up the good work, all the best, BOB.
50p rare coins seem to be a lot easier to find for me. I do have a few of the £2 coins you found there though. I also got a big 5 new pence coin in my change once which I thought was a 10p coin.
❤️❤️hi Chris I think the 2015 technology is a fake the edge description should be slightly to the right hand side the fake looks quite straight I think is fake
Hi guys! The other day I found a Shakespeare Tragedies "FOR KING AND COUNTRY" Edge inscription error, does anyone have any idea how much its worth or whether its worth selling it? Thanks :)
Just found your channel and I love it. Also just found a Shakespeare £2 coin in my purse...It's the skull one dated 2016...your one is dated 2015...does it make a difference in value ?
Not sure why I am so fascinated watching someone else collecting coins, you do make it very interesting and informative, thanks, Gary 👍 😁
Hi ssr
Yo p
Exactly the same thing I was thinking
@@Norwichjase good s
Good Good
It’s a Sunday. Never had an interest in coin collecting and yet I’m watching these episodes back to back. Great content. Subscribed. 👍
🤣👍
Frfr I just sit thinking I've spent a £250 coin on a drink
That's how I started!!!
Same bruh
Aye a dont know wats wrong wi me either😂
I've never watched a video like this ever and to be honest I kinda like it
Hi
You should try 'pimple poppers'.....then again, maybe don't...
Why the hell am i watching all of these videos back to back? No interest in coins or stamps but cant stop watching these! Fab please continue
I never realised just how much fun looking for collectible coins could be ....I’m more into spending them than collecting.
We saved £2 coins for years. Was well over £2000 worth when we took them to the bank. Never knew there was edition coins. Got quite a few hundred quids worth in a bottle now in the cupboard. Think I'll go check them now.
Hope you find something awesome!
I love collecting coins as well
idk why but this was so soothing and his voice reminds me of old childhood minecraft youtubers for some reason?? I miss the simple times :( its comforting
I would like them to do a 4 coin dog set English bull terrier to represent England, Irish Terrier to represent Ireland, Welsh Terrier to represent Wales and a Scottish Terrier to represent Scotland.
Think your the only person that would ever want this
This is not really an interest of mine and was randomly suggested by RUclips, but there is something really satisfying and endearing about watching someone engage in their hobbies rather contently. New suscriber here 😃
Agreed lol I have watched 3 of these now.
Some coins get battered around in a washing machine or tumble drier. Hence rough edges. 😊
First time i've come across these videos. Is it me or is this soothing to watch? I'm fascinated, so much so I hit the 'subscribe' button. I collect £2 coins myself.
😁👍
Perfect Speech.
I love this, I was having a hard day but watching someone do something they live makes me happier
Recently released is a tongue twister, but try to say at speed.
‘i wish to wash i my irish wrist watch.’
I was very lucky with some change given to me in B&Q.
Four two pound coins and they all are 2016 William Shakespeare and they are worth more than face value.

Every now and again I get recommended something out of the ordinary. Last time it was "The lock picking lawyer" and I am still addicted to his channel. I suspect this one may be similar.
Also was suggested the lock picking lawyer, which I am now subbed too.
The speed you evaluate is truly astounding, as is the time it took to spot the "fake" - Subbed
Hi ssr
Why not weigh the 2015 coin majority of fakes weigh completely wrong .
This is the kinda guy I want to be best mates with.
Any info about the Brunel £2 piece with a miss stamp Two Dounds 2017 --- Dounds not Pounds.
Used to do this at work! Old school £1 coins I love it
Brilliant Video All The Best Of Health To You And Good luck.
Very well spoken young man
Christopher, re-check the milling. The '+' sign was not aligned with the reference 2015 £2 coin you used.
I noticed that too, at 5.38 on the video when he lines up 'standing' you can see both the '+" signs just to the left...they are not in the same place on the rims. I don't know anything about coins, so I am not sure if this is significant, but it certainly looked different to me.
the dodgy 2015 one is a Chinese fake - there was a whole load that year - I found a Mary Rose one with the wrong date on it
Take a closer look at the gear cogs on the fake, They are incomplete.
just stumbled across this channel, it appeals to my inner geek. ive got about £1500 in £2 coins that i'll now end up mooching through!!!
Love it when i find a special coin in my change 😄
"is one side heavier then the other?"
???
You've finally cracked. I'll go get the jacket. 😂
Lovely Shakespeare's set 👍
Oh my god just came across your channel m addicted now x
I think your 2015 coin might be a die proofing coin. These are used to check dies before using them, but the coins are not washed or tumbled after they are struck.
Wow our video had me mesmerised, your so knowledged, found it really interesting, thank you for sharing, off to watch some more of your video's.
Thank you!

What a fabulous bottom row! and I would say it’s real. Stay safe fella
Your knowledge of UK coins is remarkable
Great video to watch. I have the Welsh commonwealth one 😊
Yeah interesting. We are saving £2 coins but not for collection just trying to fill a very large jar. I’m gonna look through and if I find the one you need I’ll ship it to ya
Ooooh imagine what you might find
Some really nice finds in the hunt Christopher especially my favourite GFOL 🔥. Well done on completing the Shakespeare set also 😊.
You can buy fake two pound coins for 1 quid in Edinburgh. They work in gambling machines shops even banks take them.
Daniel Radcliffe does coin collecting. Also, vid is like unintentional ASMR.
😆😆😆
Why is this so bloody interesting. I'm learning so much!
Seriously though, people name calling, this tells me that you wish you had a collection like this that’s why you watched it in the first place. Sick collecy
do you get the bulk bags of coins from the bank? is there a charge is so?
I get them from my bank I have a business account which makes a difference in some places
Broke open my 2018 BU set the edges of the £2 coins, even more noticeable with the Frankenstein, we rough, sharp even
Wooowww haven't commented in a while hell yeah well done for 46k subs
Well spotted matey The moody one I in the last 5 yrs have started collecting Speedway signed photo s Which led to Rider caps and trying to put together a collection of speedway tracks Badges Kind of one from each track Closed ones as well KEEP it up mate you started young Good move
Hey! Just found your video, I really enjoyed it.
I sometimes help my friends, who owns a parking company, count coins and putting them in those small bags.
From now on I’m going to look more closely!
Ooooh good luck!
Boats on ships always cracks me up 🤣🤣
Hold the coins with two fingers.. two pound at the top and date at the bottom.
Spin it over and Queen should be strait
Where do you get the big bags of £2?
I get them from my bank I have a business account which makes a difference in some places
Great hunt, Chris!😉👍Definitely missing the Sunday afternoon hunts. Hope you're doing well & staying safe, buddy!🍻👊
@3:55 you say you hav a soft spot for boats on ships. I think you meant to say boats on £2 coins :)
I don’t know how I ended up here, but I really enjoyed this, hope you find the coin you’re looking for man!
😁👍
7:11, do you look for the Pemember Pemember edging error on these?
7:50, you had a 1997 queens head with Pearl necklace,
Nah both are common only face value
Another great video Christopher, a few nice finds in there.
Thanks mate because of you I have learned so much take care mate
Where can I get some coins like those to buy?
First: Go to Britain if not already
Second: go to a bank and get a small amount of coins
Third: slowly increase the value of the order
Fourth: then you have a bag of £500 in £2
And done!
Do you have the Euro 96 £2 coin? That is one of my favourites.
I have two of them. The mintage was extremely high.
I like collecting coins it is my life of hobbies thx for letting me know the tips and tricks

I've got a gold two pounds coin with the dove of peace on one side. Is it worth much do you think?
Probably worth £2
I’ll give you an old quid for it towards the end of next year when a £2 coin is worth less than 2pence in today’s terms
Hey Chris i have albums full of £2 all of which have miss strikes, off centre flaws or inverted the writing😄😄
10:32 is an odd
Looking £2 coin hmm
Didn't even know that there are such coins in England. I collect 2 euro coins ;)
Another Phenomenal Video All The Best.

brilliant video
You've got me subscribed alright Chris. Great video my friend...
❤️❤️hi Chris I think the 2015 technology is a fake the edge description should be slightly to the right hand side the fake looks quite straight I think is fake
i have a two pound 2016 technolgy coin show the queen with a blank face and miss printed on the other side would there be any value in the coin
I think Hilda Ogden should replace the queen on ALL coins.
Hi guys! The other day I found a Shakespeare Tragedies "FOR KING AND COUNTRY" Edge inscription error, does anyone have any idea how much its worth or whether its worth selling it? Thanks :)
It's worth 250,000 👍👍
Just in time for Christmas
@@kennorton5884 nahh I dont think it's possibly worth that much, I'm thinking maybe like £50 on ebay?😂
@Little Flor @Ken Norton ii can't tell if yous are being serious or sarcastic. Like genuinely no jokes how much is it?

How do you get the coin? From a bank id imagine
I get them from my bank I have a business account which makes a difference in some places
@@ChristopherCollects i really like the idea of collecting coins and always thought it was just luck when going to the shop lol
It could be a bit of grease in the die, well done on the Shakespeare trio....like old days right buddy great video 🥋🥋👍
Just found your channel and I love it.
Also just found a Shakespeare £2 coin in my purse...It's the skull one dated 2016...your one is dated 2015...does it make a difference in value ?
I don't collect money ,I spend it ,but I'll have a look in the future,for any £2.coins with a difference.
You never know what might turn up
@@ChristopherCollects very true , anyway good luck with your search.
That £2 coin that looked odd is a counterfeit. I see those alot at work
Not sure how I got here, but really quite enjoying this !
I have an all silver £2 coin is it worth anything?
Possible hard to say without seeing it
Where do I buy a bag like yours to keep my coins.what is the bag called
Where can i buy the books for the coins?
I have 1959 2 shillings is there any value 7:57
Its official you've pulled me back into collecting 👍
really interesting pass time. I wonder where you get your coins from (a bank i assume) AND what the future holds in these cashless days.
Long way off digital will still exist with cash according to government.
Enjoyed your video, nice coins... hello from Texas...
👋😁
Part of my collection of coins are 2 pound coins from 1986 and 1996. The 1996 2 pound coin has a football desgin
1st lol. A very nice 2015 2 coin, so shiny. Also an entire Shakespeare set in great!
£2 is worth £2 🤪
That sharp coin looks quite good if it was a fake. Keep us updated on it 👍🏼💯
