I don't think the practice of quoting prices in guineas completely disappeared with decimalisation. I was billed in guineas by a surgeon in Scotland in 1982. --scruss 22:44, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

What little Napoleon or tabloid journalist says "25 millimetres" was the diameter of the coin over 120 years before the Metric System? Looks like they'd reference it to the inch. Use either an exact measurement or state that it's an approximation for the immeasurate. --Sobolewski 18:41, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
