Not enough information. Do you mean a specific, collectible penny that would sell for more than face value to a coin collector, or do you mean the current exchange rate?

If you mean a collectible coin, please post a new question with more details including its date and condition.

If you mean the current exchange rate, it's almost exactly 1p = 2¢

The largest denomination of the British Pound currently in circulation is the Fifty Pound note.

British Guineas were no longer minted after 1813. They were replaced by the Sovereign.

You're asking about a British Penny (KM#897) minted between 1961 and 1970 (there is actually one example known from 1954 - it would be worth a lot). It is a large bronze coin weighing 9.40 grams and measuring 30.72mm in diameter. To value it, one would have to know the year and the condition. Broadly, it is worth well under a US dollar in circulated condition, up to a dollar or so in Uncirculated condition, and about US$1,000.00 in Proof (except for 1970, which was only produced in Proof and is worth perhaps US$3.00-5.00).

A British 1970 cupro-nickel Florin (QE II)(Proof FDC), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £10 GBP.

There were no general circulation British Florins minted after 1966.

The Midland Bank is privately owned and does not, and never has, issued its own coinage.

Any coins purchased from the Midland Bank, will be some sort of commemorative coin minted at the Royal Mint and may be packaged in a Midland Bank presentation pack or similar.

The 1937 to 1956 British Farthing features a wren on the reverse. All documentation refers to nothing more than simply "Wren".

It is suggested by one source that the designer, Thomas Humphrey Paget, probably did not know the type of wren himself, and merely engraved a wren from a picture.

There were 1 million George Best Five Pound notes printed.

The larger pre-1991 5 Pence coins were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised in 1991.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.

A British 1968 cupro-nickel 5 New Pence coin (Elizabeth II), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £0.20 GBP.

Such a broad all encompassing question is not possible to answer in this forum. There are books of hundreds and even thousands of pages devoted to this subject, even for the coins of just one country.

You could venture off to your local library and look for a coin catalogue such as the "Standard Catalogue of World Coins" which will give you some idea of valuable coins in the past 100 years.

Such a coin does not exist. Threepences have never been made from copper.

A Bank of England One Pound note (Series D - green)(Chief Cashier D.H.F. Somerset - depending on the serial number), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch anything up to £5 GBP. If it has been circulated but still in good condition, it might fetch anything up to £3 GBP.
