Hi Ron - I'm doing a little bit of searches... Friendly FYI... here is an image of a 2 Kopek Soviet coin. Obviously, per your description, this doesn't match...
Still checking a few sources... That said, if all else, hopefully Siberian Man will be able to help... but usually he's on a bit later though. Any chance you can post a photograph of each side?
Sounds like a Greek 2 drachma coin Edit: found a picture in World Coin Gallery: http://worldcoingallery.com/countri...17 2 Drachmai (1976-1980)&query=Greece km 117
By searching the internet for recently concluded auctions, although probably EBay would be the only place your very common, low value coin has been auctioned. For what it's worth, the not always reliable Standard Catalog of World Coins, 2008 35th Edition, listed it at 25¢ Extra Fine, $1 Uncirculated, and $2 Brilliant Uncirculated.
