a ten shilling coin in his mouth?

I imagine what is meant is a half-sovereign. No one called them "ten shilling coins" - compare the ten shilling note (which said it was worth "ten shillings"). The coin, like the sovereign, wasn't marked with a value at all.Thomas Peardew (talk)

Some sources say a sovereign. Paul B (talk) 17:16, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

But why does it mean slander? Never heard of that one. 2A00:23C7:E287:1900:DC4:B2BD:3264:EE17 (talk) 22:50, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
