Hey! I have these things called Pound Notes with a picture of the Queen on them. Her Majesty says she promises to pay the bearer one pound of Gold. Can I take her up on this promise?

Sorry pound notes are no longer legal tender all the best urban

Ah! No! Don't say that! My pound notes are losing their value every day. Even the Tesco supermarket 1 pound pizza is going up in price... I have an idea! I will go to the bank, change my pound note for 100 copper penny coins and melt them down. The copper is worth more than the pound!

Yeah! I'm feeling lucky today. All those lovely Gold Bars! No more of that worthless paper stuff!
