holy jebus thats not that long ago. I still remember the Punt-Euro changeover and what a pain in the hole it was having two tills. Think I still have some pre decimal stuff at home somewhere that I found in the attic at the parents house. Cant remember what the pre decimal pound was worth in pence though, anyone enlighten me.

Polish beer. Available in nearly every off-license in the country.

When I was about 8 I found a copper coin with a roman centurion on it..it was about the size of an old pound coin (remember them with the deer on it? Op you may not remember:)). I wonder what it was? My nanny asked me if she could have it. I gave it to her but secretly wanted to keep it. She passed away a few years later.

this was on my desk! bit older than your penny!
I wonder if I go inta the village will one of the old biddys still accept it outta habit..

I only just realised, that that 50 pence which is just floating around here on my desk, is just as old as this note which is also floating about,

Look what somebody gave me !
