Bit of trivia. Australia went full on decimal on the 14th of February, 1966. No more pounds, shillings and pence.
I was 8 at the time and my 6 pence piece was devalued to 5 cents. 6 pence bought an awful lot of lollies. 5 cents, not as much. A shilling ( 12 pence) became 10 cents and so on. There went my pocket money as far as I was concerned.
