2p for a phone call... old 1/2 penny same size used to work... we used to call the house phone, let it ring 3 times, then hang up.... 30 seconds later phone it again, let it ring 3 times, then hang up again... this was a signal to my mum when i was about 9 to come and collect me from the phone box i said that i would be in sheltering from the rain... didn't cost a penny...
