IV found a 2012 gold poppy $2 coin with a 180 degree upset. Essentially it's been printed upside down....any thoughts?

I read the coins with the "rememberance" being at the top of the coin as that would be correct coin Grammer...

I beg to differ, if that were the case then pretty much all other versions of the $2 coin would be upside down instead of this one, as demonstrated below. Why would the poppy be the only coin not following this layout style?

Haha well it makes sense the two dollars would be the bottom and I have an error coin, I haven't seen any other gold poppy's so I don't know how they've been aligned. Plus if you are right then none of them will be worth anything anyway.

to the forum Johnmum!

As debono stated previously, 'Two Dollars' at the top and 'Remembrance' at the bottom is the correct orientation for this coin, with 'Remembrance Day' in repetitive small print the correct way up and 'Lest We forget' upside down.
