I have a 2p piece with the inscription 'NEW PENCE' on it. Does this make the coin rare or valuable?

2p coins from 1971 to 1981 featured the words ‘NEW PENCE’. This changed to ‘TWO PENCE’ in 1982, but a small number of 1983 coins were mistakenly struck with the old ‘NEW PENCE’ design, making them rare.

The Royal Mint is unable to provide valuations for individual coins. If you would like to find out more about the potential value of your coin, we recommend consulting a reputable coin dealer.
