In the morning they were convinced that they had accepted the King's Shilling in good faith and had therefore been unarguably and indefinitely conscripted.

Get the Receiving the King's Shilling mug.Noun.
Historical definition:
During the Napoleonic wars, due to the lack of able seamen, sailors were recruited (press-ganged) by being paid a sign up fee - 1 King's Shilling.
Reluctant conscripts would be approached by one or more 'recruiters' who would ply them with alcohol until they were totally drunk. They would then hit them over the head with a 'cudgel' and place a King's Shilling in the drunkard's pocket. The inebriate would then be carried on board where they were woken up and convinced that they had joined in good faith. Any argument against the join would be discredited by the discovery of the King's Shilling.
Modern Usage
Discreet gay proposition.
