1:58+
I ran a 1:56 relay split with a PR of 54, and a 1:57 open.
2:06.12
2:00+
with a PR of 54.7 indoors, i ran a 2:03.44 indoors, idk the conversions outdoors though.
I like using my self made Coe graph to give myself a realistic approximation (note I didn't use all possible data - just something rough).

54 for him would be about 2:01.
Yeah, we can get into the whole "if he focused on yada yada he'd get it down to 1:56-58" which is what most calculators would say - I mean he was only 15. But the facts are this is about what he ran when his pr was around 54. The interesting thing about Coe was that I don't consider him to be a strength or speed runner - just a guy in the middle who figured it out. It's a testament to Peter Coe's meticulous work.
Not enough information. If you're a pure sprinter, you'll struggle to break 2. If you're a middle-distance runner, you could run under 1:55.
I ran a 1:54 with a 54sec 400 PR, but I was a distance runner coming down (I probably had a faster quarter in me, but I almost never ran it open).
I've seen sprinters who could run ~52 for the quarter, who couldn't run faster than 2:02 for the 800.
So are you a sprint, middle or distance runner?
I think I could go about 54 (time trialed a 55 the one time I ran it), and my PB is only 2:03. Probably depends a ton on your own fast twitch/slow twitch ratio and what you're training for.

Damn, you're slow.
