As the OP said "£100 cheaper" then the assumption might be UK?

Which only serves to illustrate why Wikipedia should never be used as
a primary reference source. Canada has not used the pound since at
least 1871 and while Delaware and other US States may have used the
pound as currency in the 18th century they certainly do not do so
today. Australia also dropped the pound some time ago and now uses
the Australian Dollar.

Yes, I noticed all the US states listed there. Nevertheless, without
examining every name listed, the point I was making is that the UK is *not*
the only country that uses the pound.

But I agree with you that a Wikipedia statement should never be accepted as
gospel without corroboration.
