Hello people I call upon you all for help once more. I merely need to know if the 50p coin with the Britannia design was in circulation? I have been looking for one for ages now and I cannot seem to locate one at all. I have checked my 'Check Your Change' book but it does not have detailed information on the amount minted. I am also looking for a 2004 Standing on the Shoulders of giants £2 coin if someone knows where to locate one?

Thank you very much!! At least my search for them on ebay etc will not be a waste of time! I can only seem to find the Commonwealth and the DNA ones at the moment. I might have to get the Check your Change book I think. Thanks again

Hello I am a new user here, and I have a question I am pretty much a new collector, collecting old, foreign and current tender coins. I have over 10,000 coins now (lots need sorting through though!) Basically I am trying to establish a small collection of coins from the current tender of the UK (From decimalisation to 2008 - before the new coins that have just been released). I am only 12 coins away from having every coin type from every year but I am a little confused about the £2 coins. I have all the commemorative coins, but I am trying to get all the coins with the basic design on them (Standing on the Shoulders of Giants). However I am not too certain if the years I am missing had these particular coins minted. Basically I need the following: 2002 2003 I know that the 2002 year had the three commonwealth coins, and the 2003 years had the DNA design but did they have the basic design minted also? I would appreciate if anyone has this information Wolfgang
