The 2008 old design 2p I always found tricky -
never was very common, even at the time.

Hi andyg, yeah there was one 2008 OD in the 250 2p I sorted through yesterday, worth keeping then?

They are definitely worth keeping! Theres only 10.6 million that were minted ( to put it into perspective => there are 6 people in the UK for each OD 2008 2p coin that was released) and considering that a lot of them are probably stuck in someones change boxes and containers, they are very hard to find ..... I was lucky I had one in an old jacket pocket and it fell out when I was retreiving the jacket recently , it was nice and red too

They were released quite early in 2008, don't think many made it as far as the Midlands. However, as regards keeping them, there are plenty in mint sets which will keep the price down :(

(I still save every one I find though...)
