Another unexpected find of £1.50 which went straight in the pot! Found it in H2Bs jeans just as I was putting them in the wash! I did warn him! And I'll be telling him I've saved him the cost of a new washer if I'd have washed the coins! Need to update sig.Waiting on £45 that I'm owed that I plan to pot as soon as I get it!
