In what country do people use pence for money?
Asked by Wiki User
At this time the U.K. is the only country to use that denomination.
Since 1971 one penny (abbreviated "p") has been 1/100 of a pound sterling. Before that time it was defined as 1/240 of a pound.
The singular "penny" has two somewhat unusual plurals - the expected "pennies" when referring to more than one 1p coin, but "pence" when referring to a single coin whose denomination is higher than 1p. So if you have 10 pennies, their total worth is 10 pence!
Which country uses shillings?
Asked by Wiki User
Very few countries today use shillings as their currency. As of 2010 the only major countries to use that denomination are in Africa - Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania. In addition the 3 countries value their shillings differently so they're not interchangeable.
