What is the difference between New Penny and old fifty Pence British money?
There never was an "old" 50p coin. The 50p denomination was introduced as part of the switchover to decimal pounds during the period 1968-71. 50p coins started circulating in 1968 because they exactly replaced the old 10 shilling note. Circulation of 1p coins was postponed until full decimalisation in February 1971, because that denomination did not mesh exactly with any of the coins in use up to that time.
Is the British Penny still being used?
The Penny is the basic unit of the British currency. Since decimalisation, there are 100 pence to the Pound. The decimal Penny, Two Pence, Five Pence, Ten Pence, Twenty Pence and Fifty Pence coins are still in circulation, and will be for a long time yet. The predecimal Pennies and variants such as the Halfpenny, Threepence, Sixpence along with the other predecimal currency, have been progressively demonetised since the full introduction of decimal currency in February, 1971.

The larger pre-1991 5 Pence coins were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised in 1991. So, 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. The smaller (18 mm) coins from 1990 onwards are still potentially in circulation so, unless they are part of a Proof or Uncirculated mint set or are individual Proof or Uncirculated coins and in absolute mint condition, they are worth 5 Pence.
When did the British 20 Pence coin come into circulation?
The British 20 Pence coin was first issued on the 9th of June, 1982. The 20p denomination was first minted in 1982. It was introduced to help with change-making, because people were finding themselves awash in 10p coins. The situation was made worse because at that time the 10p coin was the same huge size as the old florin that it replaced after decimalisation. The 20p coin is also notable because it was the first decimal coin to have its denomination expressed simply in pence rather than "new pence".
