remarked:
What is wrong with "one pence coins" ?

Linguistically should be "One Penny coins", and whatever the merits of
an argument that the currency is called Pounds and Pence (of which the
coin has a value of Zero pounds and one pence), the coin *does* have
"One Penny" written on it.

And you wouldn't call a £1 coin a "One Pounds Coin", would you? (Which
you would by analogy with "Pounds and Pence")
