I was once told that coppers that say new penny on them would be worth a bit in a few years, but there's still absolutely shit loads in circulation so it could be a while yet.

I do have one of the original £2 coins kicking about somewhere.

All with no date on? They seem to be going for between 30-40 quid now as it turns out that there were between 100-200,000 released, and not as few as expected.

Apparently one went for £138 on eBay! What muppet paid that!!!?
