cant you just get rid of the denomitised bits...i havent done it for all coins...and it helps the newbies...

florins changed to 10p's (the big ones), shillings were 5p's...but i was born in 1990, so i do not remember back to 1971

word: battle

i dont know...but a sovereign as a pound seems strange...

and there cannot be 5 half crowns in a sovereign because: a half crown is (according to your table) 30 pennies...and 30 pennies x 5 = 150 pennies, not 240 pennies... you should see a psychiatrist!

also there cannot be 240 pennies in a sovereign can there? 240 pennies are 20 shillings, and 20 shillings are a pound!!!

umm...yes, follow the yellow half soveeign line and you will find 1/4 half crown and 1/4 crown...

i think you meant 1/2 for the half sovereign

yes... it is more easy to find nice elizabeth coins then nice george VI coins...

it does...go allong the 'yellow' sovereign line and you will see: 1/4 crown and 1/4 half sovereing

oops, here is the correct thing: Quater Guinea = 5 shillings 3 pence (5/3) Half Guinea = 10 shillings 6 pence (10/6)

a crown is the same as a half sovereign?

this one has more information...and also it is in the beginers area, a beginer would not look for coin types in the 'british coin related discussions' forum...

nice table
