In 1982, the word "new" in "new penny" or "new pence" was removed from the inscriptions on coins, to be replaced by the number of pence in the denomination (i.e. "ten pence" or "fifty pence"). This coincided with the introduction of a new 20p coin, which, from the outset, simply bore the legend "twenty pence". A £1 coin was introduced in 1983, and a £2 coin in 1997.

Decimal and ["x"] amounts to which is either 0, if "d" = 0, or gets arbitrarily small, when "n" tends to infinity. According to the definition of a limit, "x" is the limit of ["x"] when "n" tends to infinity. This is written as formula_7 or which is called an infinite decimal expansion of "x". Conversely, for any integer ["x"] and any sequence of digits formula_8 the (infinite) expression is an "infinite decimal expansion" of a real number "x". This expansion is unique if neither all "d" are equal to 9 nor all "d" are equal to 0 for "n" large
