The British Pound Sterling is the world's oldest currency still in use, tracing its origins to Anglo-Saxon England around 760 AD. Managed by the Bank of England, it is the fourth most traded currency in the foreign exchange market. The pound preceded the euro as Europe's de facto reserve currency for centuries.
