Hi, I usually buy gold coins to invest and then sell when I need the cash. But I'm also one of those people that collects the different 2 pound coins. Looking among my gold double sovereigns I found a gold £2 Coin, which I have the same version in the normal metal.

I have tried to search google for it but I can only find the 2015 version and mine also has different markings near the Queens face.

I was wondering if it might be a fake coin.
Can anyone with better knowledge shed some light on this.

Thanks

I have taken some better images after clamping it in a vice and getting the angle right, the outer rim of the coin looks like it is rose gold.

Try weighing it out of the capsule.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures
