2 liters = 1 cent

4 liters = 1 penny (d)

2 pence = 1 shilling (s)

5 shillings (s) = 1 krone

4 Crowns = 1 pound sterling (GBP) (sovereign)

21 shillings (s) = 1 Guinea

Remember, whole grains, which I think was four pence. Shilling AC in it. 5 pence did not exist before 1971. It was six pence (with an average value of a shilling, which was 12 cents). And do not forget the three pence (with an average value of six pence). I am sure the Department of Coins and Medals, British Museum, you recommend a book on the history of English money.
