English currency



A query.
Can anyone please tell me what amount of money the following was in England at about 1649 please, it states the following....

"Leaving by his Will, 1000 (alongside the thousand there is then an italics L) to each of his daughters .... "

I have been searching the internet to find what the old currency of the period might have been, but cannot see anything that satisfies my searching, but am thinking it has something to do with how we used to say LSD for pounds shillings and pence, but I am sure someone can set me straight.

Thankyou
Margaret
