£2 coin query

Recommended Posts

In the 2024 Coins of England decimal edition, on page 97 variety K69 is a Queen Elizabeth £2 coin but on page 405, K69 is a Charles III £2 coin.

The QEII coin is supposedly a "Britannia" variety bearing a "privy mark" denoting the year of her death but I can't find any photos/trace of this coin.

Can anyone help ?

I don't have the book to see the details of the coins you are looking at. (I gave up on decimal last year!) What year are you looking at?

I know there is a privy mark on some of the 2019 Britannia 50ps, but that is clearly too early for a coin to record her death.

Thanks - so, it does exist, but clearly they have erroneously given two different coins the same identifying code (K69).
