Cattle are often sold for guineas as a traditional pricing method in certain markets, particularly in the UK, where a guinea represents a value of 21 shillings or £1.05. This practice is rooted in history, as guineas were originally gold coins used in trade. Selling cattle for guineas can also add a sense of prestige and distinction to the transaction, appealing to buyers and sellers in livestock auctions. Additionally, using guineas can help to distinguish livestock prices from standard currency, reflecting the unique value of the animals.
