Best Answer

The Shilling as used by Britain and many of the British Empire/Commonwealth countries was abbreviated to "S".

It was a subunit of the currency. There were 12 Pence in a Shilling and 20 Shillings in a Pound.

These Shillings are part of a long redundant or obsolete currency and are no longer used.

The countries currently using the Shilling as their major unit of currency include -

Kenya - abbreviation = KSh - (ISO code = KES) - 100 cents = 1 Shilling

Somalia - abbreviation = So Sh - (ISO code = SOS) - 100 senti = 1 Shilling

Tanzania - abbreviation = ??? - (ISO code = TZS) - 100 senti = 1 Shilling

Uganda - abbreviation = USh - (ISO code = UGX) - 100 cents = 1 Shilling
