The British Pound (GBP), often symbolized by "£", is the official currency of the United Kingdom and several of its territories. It is one of the oldest currencies still in use today, with origins dating back to the early Anglo-Saxon period.

As of October 2023, the British Pound is recognized as one of the world’s major currencies, often used in international trade and finance.
