First World War £2 coin: how much is it worth?

While that's still above face value, it's only about 10 times more than you'd get for it as general tender.

If you want to sell on a copy of the coin yourself, you might want to think about getting it officially verified by change experts to add some value to the sale.

Or try completing the War collection and selling as a bundle.

When you're buying and selling on eBay you have to keep in mind all the hidden charges, so when you add up sellers fees and postage, to name a few, you might only earn as much as the face value of the coin anyway.

Are there others like it?

It's not the only First World War design out there.

There's also a copy that came out a year before the Navy version, but it's not as rare.

The Kitchener design features imagery that was prominent in British government propaganda campaigns during War time time, but a grand total of 5,720,000 were minted when it came out in 2014.

That means it's more likely to pp up in your change than the Navy copy, so collectors don't deem it quite as valuable.

There's a very rare version of the coin with errors though that's sold for as much as £500 in the past.

Only two so far have ever cropped up in collectors' change, so it's very valuable to come across.

There's also another copy that came out in 2016 too, but the third issue Army version is even more common with a mintage figure of 9,550,000.

Are the other coins in my change valuable?

Much like how each of the First World War coins are commemorative, similar designs are often desirable for collectors.

There's a collection containing 29 different designs of each of the sports from the 2012 Olympic games for example, and these will regularly sell above face value.

Some of them sell for more than others, but it's all because of how low the mintage figures are.

That being said, a coin will only sell above face value if someone is willing to bid that much.

One of the most popular coins to collect is the Kew Gardens 50p and this can go for over £300 in some cases, as it's so rare and sought after.

Coins with errors will usually gain a lot of interest too.

But from one day to the next, that interest can change so there's no hard and fast guarantee you'll be minted by snapping one up.

If you look at other listings on eBay you'll be able to determine how much your own change could go for.

But be cautious of fakes, as they'll often show up online.

You should also always keep in mind that on eBay a buyer could pull out, which means the coin won't have sold for the price it says it has.

But if you're worried, or want a definitive answer to how much your change is worth, you can check your change with experts like  or .

They'll be able to tell you if your change is worth what others are saying or maybe more.
