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

Is it not possible to take the money to bank, particularly where one might
have an account, rather than to go through one of those counting machines?


Last time I did that they almost threw me out. But seeing as there
wasn't a queue they counted it and accepted it and told me not to do it
again. I think they normally require bulk change sorted, bagged and
weighed, which they can then quickly check by re-weighing.
