Alex K Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 It's smaller, does that have implications as to its monetory value!, I also note that Her Maj, still doesn't look like Her Maj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul wood Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 The only problem is that in hot weather there is a dangle that they might stick together and you inadvertently give £10 thinking it is five. PS Alex you look much better since you changed sex. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I ever have more than one in my wallet at a time anyway lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 They won't stick in hot weather unless they're made from a different material than A$ or the SG$ however, I've had problems separating 'brand new' A$ notes so it isn't impossible for them to stick. Give them a go in the washing machine and it's all good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul wood Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Mike it should be danger, it's me being somewhat hung-over and dyslexic simultaneously. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hucks216 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) I've already had one tear in two with a folded crease just to the left of the Queen's head giving way and creating two parts! Edited October 24, 2016 by hucks216 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's concerning, I was lead to believe that they couldn't be ripped? Clearly I've been misinformed!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul wood Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 The vegans are at it again because a minute amount of animal fat is used in the production of the £5 a vegan restaurant is refusing to accept them. Sounds like Meerut 1857 all over again. With the Debden works (where they are printed) being laid siege by an army of vegans. Meat eaters being massacred and thrown into a well and the Bank of England besieged for several months. We live in turbulent times. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hucks216 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Four £5 notes to keep an eye out for... Four special £5 notes, engraved with a tiny portrait of author Jane Austen, are being been put into circulation and could be worth more than £20,000. The first of four notes featuring art by specialist micro-engraver Graham Short was spent in Kelso in the Scottish Borders on Monday. Three more notes will be spent in England, Wales and Northern Ireland this week. BBC - £5 notes worth £20,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spasm Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 While having a look at the fiver given to me at the local co-op when I first saw one, the serving wench said that those with the prefix AK47 were sought after. The woman next to me asked how much they were worth. The teller said "about five pounds I think." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul wood Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Yes the has been an E-Bay scam on AK47 series, what people have to realise that the numbers go from 000001 to 99999. So if somebody is stupid enough to pay a lot of money for an AK47 £5 then as Napoleon XIV said someone should be "coming to take them away Ha Ha."
