Mint producing something less than the King's Shilling? (10)
I haven't cracked this one yet — but Times for the Times have:
there were I suppose twelve pennies in a King’s shilling, which is a slang term referring to the advance (earnest) payment, which used to be given to recruits in the UK armed forces; PENNYROYAL is a species of flowering plant in the mint family. I assumed it was something you sucked…

Bringing to mind corrupt 29 I have as support (9)
I haven't cracked this one yet — but Times for the Times have:
OCTAVE* IVE (I have > I’ve supporting it, or propping it up in a down clue); the editor likes to pop one of these Guardianesque cross-referencing clues in from time to time, so we can all throw our arms up in the air and talk about declining standards, policemen getting younger each year, kids having it too easy at school, comedy shows no longer being funny, etc. etc. ‘Corrupt’ is the anagram indicator.

just a matter of getting the spelling right in this one. I’ve tried hard to like other stuff of Sergei’s apart from Romeo and Juliet but have never quite pulled it off.
