Two-and-six in old money? (6,2,5)
I believe the answer is:
pieces of eight
'in old money?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pieces of eight that I've seen before include "Old coins; '---!' (Long John Silver's parrot)" , "2 and 6 perhaps" , "Old Spanish coins (sought by pirates)" , "Spanish dollars" , "In old money" .)
