Answer 5

4 fathings = 1 penny

2 fathings = 1 ha'penny

12 pence = 1 shilling (a "bob")

24 pence = 2 shillings (2 bob or a "florin")

30 pence = two and six (half-a-crown)

60 pence = five shillings (5 bob or a "Crown")

120 pence = ten shillings (ten bob)

240 pence = 1 pound

5 pounds = "a fiver"

10 pounds = "a tenner"

£1000 = "a grand"

1 new penny = 2.5 old pence

One "new" pound = a h*ll of a lot less than it used to!

Coins available were farthings, ha'pennies, pennies, thrupenny bits (3 pennies), sixpences, shillings, florins, half-crowns, Crowns to mark special occasions only

Notes available were: 10/- (10 shillings), 1 pound notes (a "oncer")  5 pound notes (fabulous big white ones called a "fiver).  I never had a tenner (my housekeeping money for 3 of us in 1960 was three pounds a week)
