The Exchange Rate
- Scottish currency vs. English currency: In 1604, following the Union of the Crowns, Scottish money was worth much less than English money. The exchange rate was 12 shillings Scots to 1 shilling sterling (or £12 Scots to £1 sterling).
- The 60-Shilling Coin: King James VI and I issued a large silver coin in Scotland worth 60 shillings Scots.
- The Math: Dividing 60 Scottish shillings by 12 gives 5 English shillings. Five shillings equaled one English crown
