When I was a kid in the early 1960's I (like many others here
I suspect)often had big old Victorian pennies which naturally
I'd spend on Lucky Bags & Jubilees and other such essentials.
Now & again you'd come across one with a young (teenage?)
Victoria & try to hang on to it but the lure of the sherbet fountain
Would prove too strong. I wonder did any of you have the will-power
to hang on to them & should I be kicking myself now, ie are they
of much value today?

Given the size of old pennies you must have had a big gob and an even wider anal sphincter!
