Your bank note should attract some interest from the right collector.

If your 20p is completely undated both sides (the 2008 error) they are selling on eBay currently for around £60, or £9,999,999 to the gullible. The other currency coins aren't really worth anything, maybe 2 to 4 times face value for the 50p's if they are mint condition. The £2 coins were limited issues, and worth a few pounds if uncirculated but there are a lot of them about. The 1986 £2 has the merit of being the first commemorative, issued for the Commonwealth Games. There are proofs and special silver issues of both coins, which would be worth more.

You might want to sell the 20p sooner rather than later, as prices are well over their peak now. Although it may never be valueless, the prices will eventually reach a low level and stay there for a long while as it becomes clear that this was a classic bubble and supply vastly outstrips demand.
