No wonder you need a chart to help with conversion, Jack! I don't see much of a pattern in that chart. (But it looks like there are "investment opportunities" in converting pence to new pence, especially if conversions both directions are allowed! 😲 )

Yes, back in 1971 it caused a lot of confusion Gary, as they tried to replace 240 old pence to the Pound (Sterling) with 100 new pence. A lot of folks did nicely out of it, as prices doubled overnight! Most did badly unfortunately, and inflation ran rampant 🤔 I still regularly hear folks do the old pence/new pence conversions in Leeds market! 😁👍
 
My wife got me this one for Christmas several years ago. I have no clue who the maker is, or what the "UG" represents (Urban Guerrilla, Unforgettable Gentleman, Ugly Guy, ??) It stays on the kitchen counter, and I use it for cutting up pills for the dog and for opening plastic food containers, removing "vacuum seals" at the top of jars containing peanuts, peanut butter, instant coffee. The blade, including tang, is about 1.25" long, and closed length, including pliers jaws sticking out the end, is about 2.75".
