Default How much was a ticket for the underground in the 60s?

Todays 5p IMHO clashes with the lower threshold where coins are too
small to be convenient to handle.


They're almost impossible to pick up when dropped on a hard floor
without long fingernails. I've taken to hoarding them, along with
pennies and tuppences, and exchanging them at the bank when I have a
bagful.


Is there any estimate on how much in coins people are hoarding?
