UK Currency Anomaly [Risolto]

There seems to be 2 decimalised currency types for UK when Coins & banknotes are selected

This seems to be the offending item, what's the reason?

One is Pound Sterling United Kingdom the other is Pound Sterling England.

Pound sterling England does not exist for anything after the creation of the UK in 1801… I assume it's because the Banknote is classed under England. Although Bank of England banknotes are for the whole of the UK. 

I believe it is because that is what whoever created/verified that page chose. You can easily change it.

Thanks for the spot. Have amended accordingly

@peterjhalford , shouldn't the New Pence from 1968 to 1981 be in a sub-section separate from the Pence dated from 1982 onwards?

A similar thing applies to the Naye Paise from 1957 to 1963 being separate from the Paisa since 1964 for India.

It's still pound sterling. Just the legend of the coins were different. They weren't worth a different amount. Same currency.

The Pound Sterling was still the Pound Sterling from 1707 to 1971 in its pre-decimal form.

Both the U.K. & Ireland were unique in revaluing 1 Shilling as 5 New Pence & 2 Shillings as 10 New Pence.

The New Pence was used to avoid confusion with the old pre-decimal Pence.

The Pound stayed the same - only what made up the Pound changed from 15 February 1971.
