It's a box for carrying a spies suicide pill.
When you see the size of this, and more importantly, how much it carried, you may regret this post.Quote:

Now, I can't say fairer than that, Henry Higgins. Blimey. Although, the bloke who owned this would NEVER have said blimey.
Enough clues. Get on with it. Oi never fort this would go on so.
Get on with it.

Tell me when you've had enough.... Five votes calls it. I don't want to give it up too easily, as it really isn't that hard...
This is hard for me. I've never been a Gentleman, but I'm not giving up.
Glad to hear it. Not giving up 'makes you' a gentleman, apparently.Quote:

It's surly not a receptacle for coins of the Realm.? wait I think I've seen such a thing used in "Upstairs Downstairs " or "Sherlock Holmes ". Would it be called a coin fob?
