I can remember when we had Pounds,shillings & pence.
12 Pence to a shilling 20 shillings to a Pound
My first Wage was 11 Pound a fortnight ie $22
A Beer was 11 pence almost 10Cents

When we converted in February 1966 you received
$2 for every Pound

First Prize in Tatts was 10,000 Pound ($20,000) and you were set for life
