Questions

How much silver is in a Edward VII Two Annas (Silver)?

A full-weight coin has about 1.34 g of pure silver.

Is my Edward VII Two Annas (Silver) worth more than its silver?

It can be. Sharp, unworn coins, scarcer dates and mint variants attract collectors. Heavily worn common dates usually sell close to melt value.

Should I clean the coin before selling?

No. Cleaning or polishing leaves fine scratches and removes original toning, and collectors pay noticeably less for cleaned coins.
