£ = squid

Before the euro we had the Belgian Franks in Belgium (BEF). Cents are just called eurocents; there’s no symbol for eurocent so we write them like: 0,02 €
Yes we use a comma instead of a dot.

pennies, not cents

£ = pound or some times called Sterling pound. Pennies dont have there own seperate symbol.

1 pound is written like £1.00
50 pence (half a pound) is written like £0.50
Or sometimes for short 50p(but not used business wise).

Yay! Other Britainians! Or is that Britons… Or, maybe Britainese?:confused:
I’m confused:o

BTW, a pound is also called a quid, eg. 50 quid.

in Finland they used to have ‘mk’ (finnish mark). In the Netherlands we had the ‘nlg’ (Dutch guilder, with even older abbreviation ‘fl’ from florijn).

In New Zealand we use $ and ¢ or ‘c’ but don’t really use the cents icons as cents are usually refered to simply as $0.02 etc.

Australia also uses $ and I assume they also don’t really mark off cents either.

Another minor difference is coin denominations. Both Aussie and NZ have 5,10,20 and 50 cent pieces, we don’t have an equivelent to a quarter.

NZ no longer uses notes for $1 and $2, we now have coins.

Aussie also has $1 and $2 coins.

NZ changed all the coin sizes from 1 November this year to make them smaller. Our old 50c coin was massive.

South Africa - Rand, symbol: R
Here’s a table that gives the foreign exchange values. Basically, R7 = 1US$

smelly england wont always accept scottish one pound notes, as england doesnt have one pound notes anymore (only coins).
