STERLING. Current money of Great Britain, but anciently a small coin, worth
about one penny; and so called, as some suppose, because it was stamped with
the figure of a small star, or, as others suppose, because it was first
stamped in England in the reign of King John, by merchants from Germany
called Esterlings. Pounds sterling, originally signified so many pounds in
weight of these coins. Thus we find in Matthew Paris, A.D. 1242, the
expression "Accepit a rege pro stipendio tredecim libras esterlingorum." The
secondary or derived sense is a certain value in current money, whether in
coins or other currency. Lowndes, 14. Watts' Gloss. Ad verbum.
