plural form of penny (used for sums of money).

Usage

The two plural forms pence and pennies tend to be used for different purposes: pence refers to sums of money (five pounds and sixty-nine pence) while pennies refers to the coins themselves (I left two pennies on the table). It is a mistake to use pence rather than penny in the singular to refer to one penny: the chancellor will put one pence on income tax.
