It varies day to day but over the last 5 years between $1.50 and 1.99.
Pre 1971 there were 240 pennies in 1 pound rather than 100, so the exchange rate was closer to 5 dollars to the pound.
The pound was originally the value of one pound (weight) of sterling silver (hence "pound sterling"). The sign for the pound is the pound sign, £ (or rarely just "L"). The pound sign is derived from the original black-letter "L", as the original duodecimal currency system (pounds, shillings and pence) used the abbreviation 'LSD' (librae, solidi, denarii), libra being the Latin word for "pound". The ISO 4217 currency code is GBP (Great Britain Pound). Occasionally the abbreviation UKP is seen, but this is incorrect. It is also abbrevated ster. or stg.
The pound sterling is one of the world's most widely traded currencies, along with the United States dollar, the euro, and the Japanese yen. |
