Accordion lacking IN and O (triO finally)

Foreign bread may be a foreign currency; then remove outer letters

28 matter is pus.

bits of ordure regularly is O rdure R egularly

so; p O u R s

I don't like the clue.

Question Author

many thanks new mod but what currency I wonder?

and many thanks atheist, I thought that, but ugh

still don't see in 32a how can cant mean sale

Cant is in chambers as a sale by auction

Obsolete verbm to buy or sell at auction. Wikipedia.

Question Author

many thanks toorak and cashier

Is Chambers on line? Google didn't seem to know 'cant'?

I don't think it is online - I have a copy of it

there is a chambers dictionary online but it is not as detailed as the hard copy

I think the Accord answer is merely the instrument Accordion with the last three letters removed -  ACCORD  -  ION
