3. Which bank note was no longer available from 1970?:£1??

Oh Wokkies you've had me on a mission with this question, I'm not even a member of shop and scan.:rolleyes:
I had an idea it wasn't the pound because I remember the pound coin coming in and it was later than 1970, in fact the pound note as we know it hadn't even come in then (decimilisation in 1971).

So anyway, I had to go and google and found this...

The ten pence and five pence coins (equivalent to the two shilling and one shilling pieces) were phased in from 1968 and the new fifty pence piece was first issued in October 1969 to replace the ten shilling note which ceased to be legal tender on 22 November 1970

this must be why"If you are under the age of 35 or didn't live in the United Kingdom or one of the Commonwealth countries which shared its strange currency before 1971, then you need this page", I was born in 1971:o
wonder if I can change the answer and re-send, thankyou gingerchick, have a pint on me;) sorry cats747 we'll have to try and re-send answers
