There were rumors for a while that there were a few £2 coins worth upwards of £15 but this was proved to be untrue. If you just have a regular £2 coin from 1996 it is probably only worth its face value.
There are some £2 coins that may appeal to a collector such as the commemorative coins that have been designed to celebrate specific figures in history; for example, Florence Nightingale or important events such as the Olympics. If your coin has an important commemorative significance it may be worth a little more than £2, although there will be thousands if not millions of these coins in circulation so it is unlikely you will get a lot of money for it.
If you have your £2 coin as part of a set of commemorative coins or set amongst older coins dating back many years, this may suddenly make the coin more appealing to a collector. If someone is able to buy a ready made collection, this will undoubtedly make it stand out more and perhaps become more valuable.
There have been a few gold sovereign £2 coins that will undoubtedly be worth more than the face value. Take these to get valued as the amount they are worth may vary depending on the gold market and the condition of the gold.
