Oh yes, and...8p in copper coins (any combination) weighs 1oz. Just don't ask how I know this or where I find it useful.
a 10p pieces still weighs the same as 2x5p (though it's probably all in metric now)
And 2p pieces are 1 inch in diameter, handy for getting the distances on a 2miles to the inch road atlas, if you're too tight to have got a satnav that is.
