Money excellent following strikes (6,8)
I believe the answer is:
pounds sterling
'money excellent following strikes' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'money excellent following strikes' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'money' could be 'sterling' (sterling is a kind of money) and 'sterling' is present in the answer.
'strikes' could be 'pounds' (I've seen this before) and 'pounds' is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
