That Dolly Mixture pack looks recent!!!!! I'm sure the best before date on it is 2002!!!! Maybe im wrong though but I remember those packs from around that time.

The Museum That Described a Coin Wrongly


In October 1971 in County Durham some people made a big mistake. The South Shields Museum proudly described one of the coins on show as a Roman coin. Miss Fiona Gordon, who was 9 years old, told them something about the coin that surprised them. It was, in fact, a plastic coin that came from a business that sold sweet drinks. They gave them to people who returned bottles to the shop. When they asked her to explain, she said, ‘I knew because I saw the letter “R” on one side of the coin.’ A man from the museum said, ‘The coin looks just like a Roman coin. We thought the letter “R” meant “Roma”. In fact it was “R” for Robinsons, the business that makes the drinks.’ ‘The date is wrong by almost 2,000 years,’ Miss Gordon said helpfully.
