I’m a little surprised Australia, New Zealand and Canada didn’t go with the decimal pound & pennies decimal system that the UK now has. The old system sounds very cute and quaint, it doesn’t make much sense though. The current system makes things much easier.

As long as inflation continues at a nice, steady pace then the elimination of the 5 cent piece should be easy.
