It was ZWB (Zimbabwe dollars), but I can see why you would assume "pound" given the country's history. Source: I have one of these notes on my coffee table :) It lives with a $1 bill that was printed only a couple of years before it.

Bad stuff happens when a government gets these things wrong!

Or japan. In romania people still say “one million” instead of “one hundred”
