That's easy!

Pound shillings and pence Two farthings would make a ha'penny two ha'pennies a penny for you Three pennies would come to threepence or a threepenny bit as we knew Six pennies would make up sixpence two three penny bits did as well All were known as a tanner As any old timer would tell Twelve pennies were worth one shilling Four threepenny bits two tanners a bob Four tanners eight threepence two shilling's All would make a florin job Two and six or a florin and sixpence Would then become half a crown Four half crowns made a ten bob note Two ten bob notes a pound A pound note and a shilling into a guinea grew This is old money pounds shillings and pence I remember it well do you?

На самом деле, система была действительно очень простой, если записывать номиналы в виде тройки фунты-шиллинги-пенсы. Тогда, скажем, крона - это -/5/-, полкроны - -/2/6, а флорин - -/2/-.

Нормальная система, только многовато названий
