PIÈCE DE 2 LIVRES (1807) ABOLITION DE LESCLAVAGE 2007 RARE COMME NEUF AVEC ERREURS populaire

This specific £2 coin is a very rare and sought after collectable.

It was issued in 2007 to mark the 200th anniversary of the abolition of the slave trade in the British Empire in 1807.

Some coins with this pattern were formed with no printing errors and are commonly found in circulation. However, a few coins left the Royal Mint with errors.

This coin has two such minting errors.

1) The writing on the outer side of the coin is: "AM I NOT A MAN AND A BROTHER". Whilst all coins have this print, this particular coin has the writing written upside down. When the Queen's head is facing upwards the writing should run along the side so you can read it, but this coin has the writing upside down.

2) The dots surrounding the Queens head do not form a perfect circle and run off the silver and on to the gold colour.

Some of the coins have one of these errors, however, this particular coin has both minting errors and is exceedingly rare.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask - thank you.
