None. The Shilling is part of the obsolete British predecimal currency. There were 12 predecimal Pennies in a Shilling and 20 Shillings in a predecimal Pound.
The British Shilling converted to 5 New Pence at the conversion to decimal currency and circulated side by side with the same sized 5 (New) Pence coin until 1990.
The One Pound coin was first issued in 1983. No new Shillings were minted after 1966 and the Shilling was finally withdrawn from circulation in 1990.
