There was a teeeeensy coin I used in the Netherlands, I think it was the equivalent of a dime here. Tiny little thing, weighed nothing!
I don't know about the £50 note. I looked up British currency in wikipedia so they might mention it there. I did find out that the farthing was discontinued in 1960. I know more about farthings than I ever thought I would. :P
See now, I have trouble with metric stuff. I'm so used to ounces and quarts and feet and inches. We learned metric as early as elementary school but it never really stuck with me.
