This is the 1996 BU issue with a mintage of 67,581. The Elizabeth II 3rd portrait £2 coin issued in 1996 commemorates the UEFA Euro 1996 football tournament held in England, marking a significant moment in the intersection of sports and numismatics. Designed by Ian Rank-Broadley, the reverse features a dynamic representation of a football, encapsulating the excitement of the tournament and celebrating the nation's passion for the sport. With a mintage of 5,295,432 coins, it is relatively common, reflected in its rarity score of 3 out of 10, making it accessible to collectors while still holding appeal due to its commemorative nature. The coin's composition of nickel brass contributes to its durability and distinctive appearance, and it serves as a tangible reminder of England's hosting of a major international sporting event, thus holding a place of importance in the collections of numismatists interested in both British history and sports memorabilia.
