pennies=d rewind=takes you back
Still not parsed though - baffling
yes, I was puzzling over this, this morning.
clear as mud, lol. ;-)
Yep ;o)
'win' is an old word for a penny
The Penny red was a stamp too.
I'm not saying it's a great clue but (ref Chambers):

WIN(3) = obsolete slang for a penny, ie an old penny.
RED(1) = a red cent [the old copper cent, superseded by an alloy of copper, tin and zinc], PENNY(1) = a cent, thus RED = an old penny.

So RED is the old penny 'out' and WIN is the old penny 'in'...honest...
Hmmm. A sound clue but the indirect references are too obscure IMHO.
