Coin Picture(s):
To avoid confusion between the old and new coinage all these coins had the word 'NEW' incorporated into the reverse design. This was subsequently removed in 1982. All 2p coins struck between 1971 and 1981 included the words 'NEW PENCE' as part of their reverse. In 1982 and in subsequent years the words 'NEW PENCE' were replaced with the words 'TWO PENCE'. However, in 1983 a small number of 2p coins were mistakenly struck with the wording 'NEW PENCE'.
