or on the take... "I didn't take it, the man at the railway station gave it to me" JR don't say a word

or on didn't - as in " I didn't take it, I found it ( before it was lost)"

or indeed on actually in the sense that what might have been perceived then as purloining is now " liberating" or " recuperating for posterity " and thus no longer reprehensible....

My daughter used to regularly " borrow" things from me in much the same frame of mind...

or yet again on "it" as in "I didn't take IT I just took the poles out of the ground and it was attached to the top, your honour"

I had a day off!

But I wasn't the one to take it but it ended up in my study!

It is posited that ST stands for Samuel Travers, who gave his bequest to Christ's Hospital in 1729, and that the number 48 on the rim may be a number given to it, like a limited edition.
