How come I have a Pound Penny (GBP)? Como exatamente eu tenho um centavo de Libra esterlina?





I was probably in Florence, at the train station, waiting the train to Pisa. I search my pocket reaching for coins to go to the toilette and somehow, someway I find one cent of a pound! Wait a second. I have never ever been in England, how's that possible?

It turns out this coin is pretty similar in size and shape to the coin representing 5 cents of an Euro. My best guess is that some Brazilian has passed it to some food shop guy as if it were 5 cents of an Euro and the food shop guy in turn passed it to me. Karma!!!
