Strange way to write it but it means United Kingdom Livre, Livre being the French name for pounds, that is why the pound sign looks like a capital L with 2 lines through it.

United Kindom Pounds. as L was the symbol for Pound, in the old pre decimal system.. LSD, Pounds, Sillings and Pence. The old system was introduced to England by Henry the Eigth, so the spelling was in Latin, Lira - being the word for pounds, that is why the pound symbol is a swash capital L with 2 lines through it. Today we use GBP = Great British Pound (£)



The penny - formerly equal to 1/240 pound but now equal to 1/100 pound is actually a English version of Pffennig, the saxon coinage system, like Schillings. The pennies were in fact a much older coin inherited by the Saxon invaders. - called DENARIUS, an ancient Roman coin of silver or, later, copper; penny (abbreviation d.). The Shilling, comes from The scilling or scylling (which possibly comes from the Teutonic root skil meaning to divide) was used in Anglo-Saxon times as money of account, even though no coins of that denomination existed. It was mentioned not only in Anglo-Saxon poems as scylling, but also in the 14th century by the poet Langland as shilling.

The Saxon Scilling was considered to be five pence (a fore-runner of decimalisation when the shilling equalled five new pence?!), but William I fixed its value at twelvepence, the value that continued until 1971.
