Available now: Celebration of Football UK Two Pound coins. These collectable coins were released by The Royal Mint in the run-up to the 1996 UEFA European Championships which was hosted by England. The competition - known informally as the Euros - has been held every four years since 1960. The England team didn’t win Euro 96 and haven’t taken home the trophy yet but that hasn’t stopped this commemorative £2 from becoming popular among sporting fans and collectors of British coins. They feature a simple but instantly recognisable football design, crafted by sculptor John Wills. The date appears in the middle, surrounded by small rings, representing the sixteen participating teams. The edge reads ‘TENTH EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP’ and you’ll find a youthful portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the head’s side. 5,141,350 of these Two Pound coins were produced by The Royal Mint but you won’t be able to find them in your change today. They’re still legal tender but most shops won’t accept them since we Brits started using bimetallic £2s. Add this fun 1996 Football coin to your collection today and we’ll post it to you for free!
