These coins are rather common and as there is low interest in Modern Decimal Issues unless it is in 'Mint' Condition, ie, in a Royal Mint Year Set or Royal Mint Commemorative Issue Pack, then it will only really be worth face value.

If however it is a 'Mint' Specimen it may be worth around 2 to 3 times face value. As long as it is in its original packaging.

There are at least two silver versions of this which are worth more (though not a fortune lol). One is 50% silver, the other is sterling silver. Then there are proof versions too, which are worth three to four times what the ordinary one is worth.

well done for getting front and back the right way around though! Most people don't...

I got mine in a package which I believe had Steve Cram on the front...value about £4 or £5 less Ebay/paypal fees so maybe £2
