Two Pounds Index
2009 Two Pounds Coin - Robert Burns
There will be a two pound coin for 2009 to commemorate Robert Burns.

According to The Royal Mint:

Robert Burns

One of Scotland's favourite sons, Robert Burns is one of the great literary figures in British history. On the 250th anniversary of his birth, a £2 coin celebrates his life and work and is beautifully presented in a colourful presentation folder.
The coin has been struck to Brilliant Uncirculated quality, a standard far higher than those found in pockets and purses
The commemorative reverse features an extract from Auld Lang Syne, probably Burns' most famous work
As a legal tender coin of the UK, the obverse features the current portrait of Her Majesty The Queen by Ian Rank-Broadley FRBS
Ideal to present as a gift.
Anyone with a passion for literature would be delighted to receive this coin - whether it be for a Christmas gift, a 'Hogmanay' gift or, perhaps most appropriately, as a special surprise for your guests at your Burns Night Supper!

2009 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.
