Two thousand guineas is equivalent to £2,100 in pounds. This is because one guinea is traditionally valued at £1.05. Thus, to convert guineas to pounds, you simply multiply the number of guineas by 1.05.
If you take a guinea as being approximately £1.05 then 200 guineas would equate to £210
I am pretty sure that guineas originated in Africa, but they are pretty much everywhere. I live in North America, and mine live in my barn.
A "guinea" is an old British term for one pound plus one shilling, pre Britain's change in 1971 to decimal currency. Pre 1971 pounds were split into shillings and pence. There were 20 shillings in a pound and 12 pence in each shilling. There were therefore 240 pence in a pre-decimal pound. A shilling is 1/20 of a pound. Therefore 100 guineas = 100 pounds +5 pounds.= 105 pounds. At todays exchange rate of 0.643030 pounds to the dollar, this would convert to $163.290.
