To me, it takes the form of a coin (6)
I believe the answer is:
income
'to me it takes the form' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'a coin' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'coin' is 'inco' which is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'me' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for income that I've seen before include "Coin me! (anag)" , "Returns" , "Money gained over time" , "Financial gain accruing over a given period of time" , "Remuneration or earnings" .)
