    Anybody Know British Money

    Today I ran into a British coin that says New pence with the number 10
    at the bottom. It's about the size of a American Silver dollar.Does a pence
    equal our penny in worth?

    Well I could possibly answer that if I knew what your penny was worth.

    10p is one tenth of £1 - £1 being equal to 100 pence.

    I think $1 = about 66p or so at the moment.

    Apparently the exchange rate today is one pounds to 1.8195 dollars.

    Well a penny is 1/100th of a dollar. Not worh much. I found the coin
    and couldn't remember how to convert the money values.So it's about 66
    of our cents? Right?

    Lizbud 10 pence would be close to 18 cents USD.
