In fact, one pound equal $5 face exactly. I like how they did that.

Almost like they knew these things would be traded by the pound at some point :P

A nickel nickel is 1/100th of a pound.
Its good to know if you ever want to find a percentage of a pound... or divide a pound in any way for whatever reason
