    I'm pretty sure it is Honesty, I've got lots looking just like that in my garden.

    Well that confirms it for me - Honesty.

    I said I'd put money on it being Honesty image

    I agree it is Honesty. The seeds are still very young, as they get older they will go brown and they they'll be ripe for opening and removing the seeds. You leave the centre part of the pod and it's what is then silvery.

    OK, I'll give in too, that is honesty.  In the Netherlands it is called 'Judas' pennies', quite the opposite from our name for it.
