Thank you for letting us know. I am cross posting this for a wider
audience.

And the cost of two £2.00 coins?

£20 according to the Royal Mint website....

Nonsense, you can find them in your change, as I have. That's part of
the fun of coin collecting. Plus, I put away the coins that I found --
£16 saved.

Aren't there different grades of coins with some collectors wanting un
circulated pristine ones? And maybe some overseas/tourist collectors
who are unlikely to get some in change.

At least the coins are a familiar size, back in 77 I got a large
number of Jubilee Crowns from a Post Office at their face value 25p .
My Bus fare to work was 25p and on a couple of occasions a regular
driver had mumbled about giving change "you should know the fare by
now". So for about 6 months he got a Crown handed to him which made
him even grumpier as the change holder

didn't have a slot suitable. Other drivers welcomed them as they
hadn't been able to get any personally and swapped them with their own
coins.

I've done same with the 2-pound coins from the 90s as well as the 50 New
Pence coins.
