Hvornår kom den nye pundmønt ud?
28. marts 2017
One pound (British coin)
Den oprindelige, runde 1 £-mønt erstattede Bank of Englands 1 £-seddel, som ophørte med at blive udstedt i slutningen af 1984 og blev taget ud af omløb den 11. marts 1988, selv om den stadig kan indløses på bankens kontorer, ligesom alle engelske pengesedler. Der udstedes fortsat 1-pund-sedler på Jersey, Guernsey og Isle of Man samt af Royal Bank of Scotland, men pundmønten er langt mere udbredt. Et nyt, dodekagonalt (12-sidet) møntdesign blev indført den 28. marts 2017, og både den nye og den gamle version af et-punds-mønten cirkulerede sammen, indtil det ældre design blev trukket tilbage fra cirkulation den 15. oktober 2017. Efter denne dato kunne den ældre mønt kun indløses i bankerne, selv om nogle detailhandlere meddelte, at de fortsat ville acceptere den i en begrænset periode. Det oprindelige runde pund er fortsat lovligt betalingsmiddel på Isle of Man.
28 March 2017
One pound (British coin)
The original, round £1 coin replaced the Bank of England £1 note, which ceased to be issued at the end of 1984 and was removed from circulation on 11 March 1988, though still redeemable at the Bank's offices, like all English banknotes. One-pound notes continue to be issued in Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man, and by the Royal Bank of Scotland, but the pound coin is much more widely used. A new, dodecagonal (12-sided) design of coin was introduced on 28 March 2017  and both new and old versions of the one pound coin circulated together until the older design was withdrawn from circulation on 15 October 2017. After that date, the older coin could only be redeemed at banks, although some retailers announced they would continue to accept it for a limited time. The original round pound remains legal tender on the Isle of Man.
