The lowdown on British pounds

A currency steeped in history

The British pound (GBP) is the oldest currency still in use today, dating back to around 775 AD when silver pennies were introduced under King Offa of Mercia—240 of these pennies equalled one pound in silver weight. The name comes from the Latin libra pondo, meaning “pound weight”.¹

Over time, the pound evolved: King Henry VII minted the first pound coins in 1489, and the Bank of England began issuing gold-backed paper notes in 1694, making it the world’s first central bank.²

In 1971, the UK adopted decimalisation, replacing the old pounds–shillings–pence system with today’s simpler format. The pound remains one of the four most traded currencies in the world. and is still known affectionately as “sterling,” “quid,” or “nicker.”³
