2015 Technology Two Pound Fried Egg Error Coin
Two Pound coin with a dramatic 'fried egg' error. This 2015 bi-metallic £2 has a rare minting error, likened to a fried egg because it looks like the central cupro-nickel disc is leaking out of the outer nickel-brass ring, like the yolk of a runny fried egg. This is caused by a flaw or misalignment of the two parts of the blank coin, which can produce a dramatic effect when it is struck. While many £2 and £1 coins are struck slightly off-centre, it's very unusual to find a coin with such an impressive fried egg flaw as this 2015 Two Pound. This example has a notable gap between the planchets and has clearly seen circulation, having somehow passed The Royal Mint's quality control. It's a very unusual piece and one that is highly sought after by serious collectors of modern error coins. System.Threading.Tasks.Task`1[System.String] System.Threading.Tasks.Task`1[System.String]
