[edit] Northern Ireland Pound

Effectively "patent nonsense" - no such currency exists. This article was created by Seabhcan when he was under the impression that Scottish and Northern Irish banknotes represent separate currencies tied to the Pound sterling at a 1:1 rate, when in fact S & NI notes are merely sterling banknotes issued by local banks and they are already properly documented in the British banknotes article. The Northern Ireland Pound article is simply a copy of the relevant section from British banknotes. Seabhcan now accepts that he was in error (see User_talk:Seabhcan#Pounds). I have salvaged the Pound Scots article because that refers to the pre-1707 currency of Scotland (when £1 English = £12 Scots), but I strongly believe that Northern Ireland Pound should be deleted because no currency of that name has ever existed. -- Arwel 21:31, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
