I do not see any damage by the 2 so may someone has seen this type coin before so please tell me the type BIE ?
To be honest, the 2 looks like the result of a coin counting machine. I've seen whole number and letters literally scraped right off the coin due to these machines.
From the picture it looks like the metal was displaced. It looks like 2 lines go from the rim to the moved part of the 2. One at the top and one at the bottom of equal distance apart.
