One of the most common of common coins, yours is real, but worth only face value.

looks indeed post mintage damage.
It could be some time of its life on the street.
Nothing special, no (collectors-) value

​I'm giving the benefit of the doubt here and attributing this to a language barrier, but that didn't make any sense at all.

Mr Iqbal,
You talk in riddles my friend, still trying to work out where the Lions came from
people talking without speaking, people hearing without listening

I ask. Why are collectors always looking for lions hidden in coins (1 new penny, 2 new pence, 1/2 one penny)
Like you are looking for "Doubled Die" on coin coins "Lincoln Cents"
Is that what makes valuable coins

​I have never heard of British collectors looking for any hidden lions hidden in any of those coins, ever before. And I have no idea what doubled die Lincoln cents have to do with these hidden lions.

Could you provide us with a link about these lions to more clearly show us what you are talking about?

​You move in unusual circles Mr Iqbal, I have never met any collectors looking for Lions, but good luck on your quest, maybe one day you find a Lion and let me know.
Best Wishes my friend

this is just an example

what I say, is the result of my own analysis, by looking at the coins they sell, on the auction site

I think you see things where there are none
(or you like to see things)
Just like the Camel sigarets.
Everyone see 'Manneke Pis' from Brussels:

Did he mean "hidden lines" instead of "hidden lions", as in die cracks?

Isn't there a rather notorious banknote ()Bahamas?) which has the palm branches arrange to spell the word "SEX"? There's also apparently a reference to "Rock Lobster" hidden on early printed circuit boards. I've never heard of a Royal Mint engraver hiding lions in coins but if there's any truth to it then I'd be most interested in learning more about it. Until I see some convincing examples I'll remain open minded but skeptical.

I can't wait for the discussion on Rice Pullers.

​Well, there are no die cracks in the circled area either.

I see the head of a toucan facing right personally. (8

​Yes, right, look at the circle. that's how they look for it but in the end I disagreed with them, because in my opinion the lion lion can be found on all the "2 new pence" coins.

I seriously want to know who's been feeding you stories of lions on 2 pence coins, though.

Who is the "they" in "that's how they look for it but in the end I disagreed with them"?

Don't forget about the "devil face" Canadian dollar:



Or in Hungary, people thought that there is a penis and not a mushroom next to the tree on the (now out-of circulation) 200 forint banknote:
