| | The pound is now freely bought and sold on the commodity markets around the world and the value therefore fluctuates (rising when traders buy pounds, falling when traders sell pounds). | | | With the break down of the Bretton Woods system – not least because British currency dealers created a substantial Eurodollar market – the pound was floated in the early 1970s and so subject to a market valuation. | | | The single Pound coin also has many varied designs on the reverse side, which differ from year to year with new designs appearing; however, all of these are Royal Mint coins and of equivalent legality. |
