Grand - Pony + Score + Fiver = Grand

From the MTV Guide to England:
"If you want something to go with your new mockney cockney lingo, how's about a bit of money slang? Londoners seem to love giving nicknames to piles of cash. You're probably already using the words TENNER and FIVER, and may well know a QUID means £1, a GRAND means £1,000 and a SCORE is £20, but what about a TON, meaning £100? And a PONY being £25? Or a MONKEY being £500? Then there's also the new NIFTY, meaning £50. And the old SMACKER for £1, from the smack the £1 notes used to make as they were slapped down on the bar."
