see i think we've got different dates

yours is the date that the new currency came in, i'm thinking about when the old currency was no longer legal.
the (new) half penny was the last to go and i didn't think that went til the early 80s

But the new half penny

was a decimal coin.

It was the old sixpence (tanner)that stayed in circulation till 1980, but we still went decimal in 1971 ;)

aye that's true

like i say, it depends when you count from, all i knew was that my sisters were aware of two currencies and they weren't born til 75
