I already have a couple of empty tins that came with medals but I've recently acquired a Fry's tin with intact contents. There's a split in one of the barsbut otherwise the chocolate is in excellent condition. What surprised me was the distinct aroma of cocoa still given off by the chocolate after all this time.

Thanks Mike. Apologis for not spotting the earlier thread. Perhaps David could merge my post with it.
