Dig down the back of the sofa for your lost shrapnel: old coinage is phasing out as Britain prepares to go decimal.

Time to dig down the back of the sofa, shake out your pockets and rummage around for those old pennies and threepenny bits, as this television information film reminds viewers to spend them before they go out of circulation. This is just one of a number of films and other material sponsored by the Central Office of Information for a major information campaign in the lead-up to decimalisation, intended to make the transition as smooth as possible.

Trailer telling people to spend their pennies and threepenny bits before they
cease to be legal tender.
