American FYI re Harry Potter
The Harry Potter books mention Muggle coins with 7 sides or something like that. I have learned that some Americans assume this is just a flight of fancy of the author and are unaware thet two British coins are in fact heptagonal rather than round. Should you ever need this in a quiz, they are the 20p and 50p pieces.
[further off track] another potential quiz winner is that there are 14 pounds in a stone
