Wednesday's on this day:

In 1971; the British Government launched a new, decimal currency across the country. The familiar pound (£), shilling (s) and pence (d) coins that had been in existence for more than 1,000 years were to be phased out in the space of 18 months in favour of a system with 100 pennies to the pound rather than 240.
