The Royal Mint has begun the countdown to the 50th anniversary of D-day . Not the World War II beach landing, that was in 1944, but decimalisation day .
On 15 February 1971, UK coinage was reorganised into the way we know today, with the old system of 12 pence in a shilling and 20 shillings in a pound abolished. Instead, a pound would be worth 100 pence, rather than 240, as it had before.
The UK was slightly behind the curve on this, with Russia introducing a decimalised ruble in 1704 and the US in 1792, while a previous effort to do so in Britain failed in 1824.
The Royal Mint has released a 50p coin to commemorate 50 years since the decimalisation of British coinage in February 1971
