Examples
[edit]{{Australian pound|4}} (4 pounds) yields
£4
{{Australian pound|4|5}} (4 pounds 5 shillings) yields
£4/5/0
{{Australian pound|4|5|6}} (4 pounds 5 shillings 6 pence) yields
£4/5/6
{{Australian pound|4||6}} (4 pounds 6 pence) yields
£4/0/6
It can also be invoked using the short form of {{A£}}, e.g.
{{A£|4|5|6}} (4 pounds 5 shillings 6 pence) yields
£4/5/6
Note that the template does not check to see if the values are sensible or indeed even if they are numeric, e.g.
{{A£|-4|55|YZYYZ}} (something nonsensical) yields
£-4/55/YZYYZ
However, this lack of checking is useful if you genuinely want/need to produce non-numeric values, e.g.
{{A£|4|-|6½}} (4 pounds 6 pence 1 halfpenny) yields
£4/-/6½
