The date is on the coin's obverse side, but even without that fact, the wording NEW PENCE instead of just PENCE indicates it was minted some time between 1971 and 1981, following the transition to full decimal coinage.
Assuming the coin was found in change, it's a very common circulation piece so it has no added value above 2 pence.
If the two pence coin that says NEW PENCE, and it is from 1983, then it could be worth up to £600.

∙ 13y agoThe larger pre-1990 5 Pence and 5 New Pence coins were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised in 1991. So, unless they are part of a Proof or Uncirculated mint set or are individual Proof or Uncirculated coins and in absolute mint condition, they have little or no value.
