A ten bob bit is a colloquial term from the UK, referring to a coin worth ten shillings, which was part of the pre-decimal currency system used before 1971. The term "bob" was a slang word for shilling, and ten shillings was equivalent to half a pound. The coin itself was often made of silver and was in circulation until the currency was decimalized. Today, the term is mostly of historical interest, as shillings are no longer in use.
