   I have a two pound English coin from 1997.  It is supposed to say on the edge of the coin "Standing on the shoulders of Giants."  On the coin I have the I in Giants is missing and it does not look worn down it just looks like it was never printed on it.  I have no idea if it was a mint error.  I was just curious.  any info is helpful thanks!

	I like a good error coin and that's what it is. Sounds like you have got yourself a little beauty do you have any pics?
