C is for Coining-it!

I was quite surprised to see these on Mercator Trading's stand earlier in the year, as I didn't remember them at all, and we had all sorts of coin and badge-albums when we were kids, and I well remember Mum sending-off for the missing ones at the end of the promotion, to fill the gaps, but the reason I didn't recognise them, is because they are from 1993, not the 1960/70's!

Fina's petrol stations, what was I doing in 1993? Commuting to Uni' on the trains, and suffering some of the last IRA bomb-threats, along with all the usual points/signal/crew failures, not thinking about petrol!
 
There's one missing and at only fifteen, a lot easier to collect than some of those previous century sets, which went to double or triple gate-fold! Get's Fina in the Tag-list, box-ticked!
 
It was California! I didn't follow it at all!
