shilling

A pre-decimal British denomination used until 1971. It was valued at one twentieth of a pound and at twelve old penny's, during the process of decimalisation, they could be exchanged for 5p (£0.05).

TL:DR old coin for 5 pence.

"Hey look, I found some shillings dated to the 60s! In 1971 they'd be worth £3.85."

Super 8

A cartridge-based film format using 8mm wide film. Was commonly used to make home movies from the mid 60s to the early 80s.

I found an old super 8 film my parents filmed 50 years ago. I think it might be porn.
