Dosh

Posted by Roger Fitch on February 15, 2003

Another slant on the original meaning of the word Dosh, as used in slang for money, could be the original symbols for pre-decimalised english coins.... D for penny and S or SH for shilling..... so it would be tempting to think that dosh was D or Sh .... meaning cash of pennies and shillings.

Just a thought!
