worth of a 1995 £2 coin?

Not sure where to post this, but I guess im trying to up my income lol. I have a 1995 £2 coin which has the dove on the back which I have found out is a 50th anniversary WWII coin, that has IN PEACE AND GOODWILL inscribed on it. However I am trying to find out what they are worth if anything, but how do you know what they are made from? Or will all of these coins have been made from the same material, it is rather confusing. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Ebay would suggest it's worth £1.99 + p&p

    (can't post a link on here but just do a search for 'two pound coin')

    sorry :confused:

    Surely though all they will say is that a £2 coin is worth £2 ?

    Thanks, I knew it wasn't going to be worth much, but I totally forgot I even had it. So it was a nice surprise to come across it anyway :rolleyes:

    Have a root around here - its not that easy to navigate, but there is a page on FAQs about the price of a £2 coin. If yours was uncirculated, it would be worth (to them) about £3.

    eBay - if you have an account, look for 'completed listings' matching what you have, and that'll tell you what they actually sold for, rather than what the current bids are on those that are still to finish...
