Pound sterling

The Pound Sterling was a form of currency used in Great Britain through the 20th century. Its value is 20 shillings to a pound, and 12 pennies to a shilling. (DW: Remembrance of the Daleks)

Susan Foreman, being a time traveller, had visited Britain's future before, and, simply being confused, could not remember how many shillings were in a pound when she and the Doctor settled down in 1963 London.

It would only be a few years afterward that Great Britain would switch to the decimalised Pound. Susan probably didn't remember which year it was that this occurred, resulting in her ridicule when she thought that they had already decimalised the currency while attending high school.

Around the late 20th century or early 21st century Britain introduced a five pound coin. (DW: Battlefield).
