Hello, my GooD men and women.
Was was looking in my granddads garage....
Seriously though
A young lad about 13-15 comes into the shop I work at today; he is somewhat of a regular and pretty much has always has an idea of making money up his sleave. A few weeks previously he wanted to put an advert up for washing cars. He seems like a good lad, though I don't know if I would entirely trust him, you know the sort you can see it in their eyes.
So anyways, when he got to paying this silver object fell out of his pocket, I asked what it was; he said it was a stamp I looked at the object and it had several markings on it:
He wanted £2 for it and said that he owed someone money, so I said
"okay". I figured if it's just steel I can melt it down or look for further interest.
So guys what the hell is this thing used for and is it silver? I thought it may be a skim of some sorts.
Oh the weight is about 15 grams.
Sorry for the poor picture quality the batteries for my camera have died so I am using the missuses Mobile.
