Before the British currency reform, there were 12 pence in a shilling, and 20 shillings in a pound, so there were 240 pence in a pound.

How much is a 10 pence from 1973 worth?
The term "New Pence" was used on British coins from 1968 to 1981 to make the distinction between the new and old currencies. In 1970, Britain had not yet fully converted to decimal currency, full conversion was to take place in 1971. The only "New Pence" coins circulating in 1970 were the 5, 10 and 50 New Pence coins. These denominations were changed during the 1990's to a smaller coin and the older larger coins were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised. Unless they are part of a Proof or Uncirculated mint set or are individual Proof or Uncirculated coins and in absolute mint condition, they have little or no value.
Does Britain use shillings in 2012?
No. The British Shilling was superceded by the 5 New Pence coin in 1968. Due to "technical issues", the British Shilling and the 5 New Pence coins being of similar size and weight, continued to circulate side by side until 1990 when they were withdrawn from circulation along with the 5 New Pence and 5 Pence coins and collectively replaced by the new and smaller 18mm diameter 5 Pence coins.
