Tobacco Tin.

[Shambling Shaman]

Not being a smoker things like this happen by accident to me.

Got 2 of these Golden Virginia 50g tins

Unlike a normal tin this one is has a lid the same size (as near as) as the bottom

the Dims are, 13.5cm long 7.5 wide 1.8cm deep when closed the tin is or seems to be slimmer than a normal tin (3cm ish).

If it was ally and not steel it would be a good tin, my plan is to spray it or sand it and decant my survival tin in to it to see whats the difference in capacity is, on the tin it saids "for use with your ryo tobacco pouch" might see what one of them looks like?

They were a limited edition tin which was issued with the 50g pouches recently, definitely bigger than the usual survival tins kicking about

Its the slimmer feel to it that got me and the fact that both bit could possibly be used to boil water/cook in a tight pinch.
