I've noticed that British coins often have nicknames, like calling the two-pound coin a 'quid'. I'm curious about the reason behind these nicknames. Why do British people give their coins such names?

This practice has been prevalent for several hundred years, with coins acquiring monikers that were never intended by their original creators.
