ITS A "POUND TO A PENNY"FOR "TCF"
This is £1.57 in old money.
Its weight is a staggering 3.5 kg. The same amount in modern coin is only 356grm. The scrap value of the bronze is far more than its face value. There are 2.4 of these to each new penny.
If you were born after 1970, you will never have used these coins. Big and bulky they are, but will hold fond memories for those of us who are a little more "mature". Oh for the days when a penny was wealth.
We would run errands all day, for whoever would let us have the penny deposit refund on the milk bottles. Some would really strike gold. They would get to keep the "pop" bottles. Fantastic, 3d back.Then at the end of the day, back to the corner shop to take your pick from what seemed a vast array of lovely things in the penny tray. "Arrow bars" "penny chews" "cadbury`s chocolate" in blue and silver paper. "penny spanish" "Bubbly" "gob stoppers" The list goes on. Boy, we knew how to live it up then.
Well now is your chance to bring back you own memories, or buy a piece of history.
For only £1 you can own your very own "real" penny. Yes thats right only £1. Is it worth it you may ask?Well no, not really. Is it an investment opportunity? oh yes, Its on track to make a profit by the year 2119. Will it buy me anything? not a lot.I like the sound of the penny tray,could I buy anything from that? er, no, well, yes, maybe., but you will need a lot more than one, like maybe 25. Do I have a choice of the penny I get? well of course you do, dirty or cleaned. State your choice on order.
