The coins are:

1961 two shillings (ugly toning)
1963 one shilling
1967 three pence
1969 ten new pence


Just answer one of the following questions:

1)If oxygen is required to cause something to burn. Why do matches go out when you blow on them?

Answer: You remove the flame which lowers the temperature of the match below its kindling point. (For those who thought it was the carbon dioxide in your breath, think about mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.)

2)What is the most common street name in the USA?

Answer: Park (not Main)

(Note: winner to be drawn from those supplying a correct answer.)

    Hey Steve, let me give it a shot at answering:

    1) It goes out due to the "lack" of oxygen
    2) Maim Streeet.

    How did I do?

    I would appreciate being entered in your giveaway. Thanks

    There are two ways to make a match burn twice:

    Nice way: split the match into two pieces so the you can strike each half separately.

    Not nice way: strike the match and then use it to burn the idiot who you're playing the gag on.
