Delete, with note that no one refers to the penny as a penny sterling anyway, and in addition to the Wikipedia articles mentioned by
Wehwalt above, we have
Penny (English coin). We do not need four articles about English or British pennies (the concepts being very closely allied). We don't even need three. Frankly all could be combined into a single article, except that I've seen too many national currency arguments end up at ANI, so I really don't want to get involved.

Delete per nom. Though I think the division into pre-decimal and decimal currencies perfectly sensible, three articles is certainly enough.

Delete as per nominator and the arguments above, this is a needless article as its content can easily be covered by the other articles mentioned (and I think "penny sterling" is a somewhat unlikely search term due as it is not a commonly used term so I do not see any value in a redirect).

Dunarc, "penny sterling" appears to be a well-attested term, see
Google Books (where the uses appear to be mostly historical), or a simple web search (which comes up with some contemporary uses, like
this one). – Uanfala (

The reply is
on my talk page. Also noting, in case this may be useful in the future, that the article had 50 incoming links, which were removed as an automatic result of the AfD
