Where to find comprehensive list (with pictures) of UK Proof sets?

    As I get distracted from my U.S. Type Set, either due to inability to find "just the right coin" or lack of funds, every now and then I meander back to the United Kingdom.

    I get various coins in junk boxes or coin reject slots, but I'm starting to want some proof coins.

    There are some for sale here, and I am inquiring about them as we speak. But many sets have more than what I really want.

    The coins that mainly interest me are:

    * minor "shield design" coins
    * The King James Bible £2 commemorative
    * some other 2 pound coins
    * LOTS of others

    The 2011 7-coin commemorative proof set may fit the bill.

    Can someone direct me to a website that would show me most/all of the different designs that have been created? Clad (if those exist) or silver; no gold or similarly-priced metals. Sets that cost >$100 can also be excluded. Thanks.

    The Royal Mint Website has pictures and design details of every £2 coin ever struck
    I tried to put the link on here but it won`t open for me.
    Google "Royal Mint £2 Coin"
    All the commemorative sets are also displayed.

    PS
    You do know it has been announced a new £100 silver coin is just around the corner
