This is a die 3 2d, one of the commonest of the KGV's. The stem of the '2' is thicker than the die 1 or 2. Your watermark should be C of A or small multi crown.
They were made as both sheets and booklets, and the outside frame of the stamps in the booklet were cut, yours looks more as though it was just separated roughly when being used.
If you have any with an inverted watermark they are from the booklets (half were printed with inverted watermark, so very common).
A few of the die 3 have plated flaws but I can see nothing on your scan.
