OK, rikcando, you may notice that I paired all the nicknames by country. Altyn indeed comes from Russia, so you should have looked for Russian grivna, not Ukrainian.

UK:
bob -- a shilling (now 5 pence)
nicker (could be knickers if a pair) -- a pound
madza caroon -- half crown
ned -- a guinea

Australia:
zack (zac) -- 5 cent coin (previously 6 pence)
Sick Sheep -- 2 dollar note

US:
eagle - $10 coin
half-union - $50 coin

Canada:
bluenose -- 10 cent coin
toonie -- $2 coin

Russia:
altyn -- 3 kopecks
grivna (grivennik) -- 10 kopecks

21 + 40 ÷ 20 x 5 -- 20 ÷ 16 = 29.75

But as rikcando pointed out it could be
US:
bob - $1
ned - $10

So I'd accept

10 + 40 ÷ 20 x 5 -- 20 ÷ 16 = 18.75

Well, this is better than baseball. Four strikes and still not tossed out of the game yet.

Sorry, Scooby, the factorial (or, in case of non-integers, Gamma-function) is not appropriate here! Wrong!
