Don't touch anything from 'TDC' (Tristan Da Cuhna) they aren't even worth what's written on them, not to mention the fact that they're utterly ghastly! If you must go modern, buy stuff when it's a couple of years old for the metal value.

Coins and stamps form quite a large part of TDC's economy.

All the worlds modern stuff is a complete rip off to catch "joe" public. :huh:

Yup.

And Tristan Da Cuhna has a population of a few hundred and those people share just 8 different surnames, I read.

Officially I think they use the ZAR Rand, when they even need to use cash! The coins and stamps issued on their behalf (often with just TDC on them rather deceptively) are probably not even accepted on the island as currency.

I can remember at junior school we did a project on TDC.Talk about give me six.

Unhealthy and inbred and rains 75% of the time (sounds like Norfolk ;))
