last weekend looked like the start of better things had the van back (4 glowplugs 1 injector latter) even a good Sunday at Cheltenham, then came Wednesday set off for Gloucester got about three miles from home and the van lost power and was smoking, “silly me doing things on the cheap should have done all the injectors not just the weakest” getting back to last Sunday i did pick up a few box’s of odd’s and sods in one was a bag of very grubby looking coins
national transport tokens, still trying to make sense of these if they can still be used or not, if i can I'd be laughing there’s a couple of hundred of them in the bag i love bus and train travel.
this one speaks for it’s self a 1938 west African two shilling coin and still very collectable,
this is the mystery one, I'm 99% sure it’s silver, kings head and rex (king), lion standing over a crown, not really sure on this one so if any of you good people out there in blogland have any idea’s please get in touch.

Looks like a George V shilling to me. This chap's looking for £30 for one. I guess yours looks more like it'll be about 5p worth I'm afraid

how did i know you would go online and try and find what that coin was, yes it's too damaged to sell to a collector as the real thing but it's what is called 500 silver so it's worth more scrap.
"well look's like more history heading for the smelting pot"
