I found those coins in my basement, are those of any value ? I mean the Euro money is not valid in england so could I use these in London ?

What are the Shillings ? they seem old ?

What's the difference beween all those coins ? Dollars and cents are so much easier :cry:

thanks a lot, so 1£ = 1 pound ? 1 pound = 100 pence ? 1 pence = 10 penny ? I have no idea how this works :(

so in the picture above, all the coins are still used ? (except for the 4 shillings coins)

1P = 1P
100P = £1

200P = £2

The 4 shillings aren't used in england, Haven't been used for god knows how long lol

you put the £ before the amount, so its £66 pounds for example...

if i was you i would just exchange it to euros at your local currency exchange...

also depending on the age of the shillings, they could be antiques..
