2011 Two Pounds Coin - King James Bible
There will be a two pound coin for 2011 to commemorate the 400th Anniversary of the King James Bible.
The coin featuring the opening text of the King James Bible. First published in 1611, the King James bible is one of the most important books ever published in the English language. This book influenced the nature of protestant worship in most sects derived from anglophone countries, as well as the Church of England itself.

  • Silver Proof version, with the outer part gold plated.
  • Piedfort proof version, similar but made double weight, with a lower mintage.

    2011 Coins


    If you want to find the value of a coin you own, please take a look at our page I've Found An Old Coin, What's It Worth?

    Please, if you are going to ask us whether the £2 coin you own is worth more than £2, please, please, please read our other pages about them first, and even then the answer is almost certainly no. About 1,000 people every week read one or more of our pages about £2 coins. Hopefully most manage to find what they wanted. A tiny percentage, but still about 20 per week ask us whether a £2 they have found in change / in a drawer / been given is worth more than £2. The answer to 99% of these questions is already on our site. We do not have the time or patience to answer such questions individually.
