Any coin with a "genuine" minting flaw would have some value, above the usual, as a collectible coin.
Genuinely flawed coins are not necessarily known about or documented until somebody turns up with one, since they are an "accident" of the minting process, and have escaped detection during quality control at the mint therefore, a valuation cannot be anticipated.
A reputable coin dealer should be able to identify and confirm the coin as genuine and make a valuation.
The problem with one-off flaws is that their value depends on the significance of the flaw but as one-offs, a dealer's opinion can only be speculative. These do appear from time to time on eBay and if your coin is similar to one that has sold, this will be an indication of the value of your own coin.
These are never documented or catalogued unless they are found in numbers, even small numbers.

Flaws and errors on coins should not be confused with mutilation or mangling of the coin.

Why on a 1979 two pence coin does it say new pence 10?
Occasionally, the Royal mint has a mix up with the dies or the blanks used to produce coins. It is possible that the 10 New Pence dies were used on a 2 New Pence blank. If this is the case, part of the 10 Pence coin design will be outside the perimeter of the 2 Pence blank, the 10 Pence coin being slightly larger than the 2 Pence coin. Alternatively, you may have a trick coin available from magic shops.
