And to add to beautifully varied fashions of reference to our money, past and present, there is:-
The guinea, one pound and a shilling, still widely used in horse racing circles.
The "Sov", short for Sovereign, meaning a pound.(Mind you, gold ones now cost an arm and a leg).
The "sprarzy", another name for a tanner.
The florin, two bob.
The "thrupney bit", pronounced just like that.
Any silver coinage appearing at our football team gambling nights was referred to as "snow".
And if you haven`t any of these in your pocket, then you are, unfortunately, "potless".
