The only "Token" I see is that shown by 'kryptonitecomics'. I thought that to be a token used for currency, it should show "Good for...." Or the full value? I don't save them, but it's just a thought.

Does this herald the emancipation of US coins?

We always take our own tea, and it's surprising how much the 'locals' enjoy it!

They're all in prison! What have they done to deserve that fate?

"Ah but it could have been much worse. A small mercy perhaps, but at least it wasn't Earl Grey tea that went overboard. ;-) "

Is that why we can't get a decent cup of tea in the USA?

Surely to con money out of people like us?

Glad someone made the point. Not UK note - only Scottish!!

Attachment removed???

Passenger Liner 'Blue Ribband' Competion perhaps?

Welcome back! Will it be one of the cometitions to see who gets back on first?

Another coin book - this time an American one! "The Complete Book of Coin Collecting" by Joseph Coffin 1959.

I'm worried that my book collecting is outstripping my coin collecting!

A 1970 book " An advanced Guide to Coin Collectiong" by Howard Linecar. A first edition too!

UK OfferMay as well add the obvious from the UK

The picture is not so good! The coin is in a 2x2. I should have photographed it before!

Too many hits? Maybe?
