    I agree jay. Ulster Bank's notes are nice. Not many notes are designed like that anymore.

    You have a very nice collection too. Keep up the good work.

    Hi paperbanknotes,
    What do you think about the future of polymer notes?
    I read this material used has it's fair share of disadvantages.
    Like security paper is restricted whereas everyone can have access to polymer; folding problem; stapling problem; once slightly torn they tear easily; oil stains can't be removed; can't stand heat; folded lines on notes can only get worse making the used notes bulky to store as bundles; etc.

    Hi Whycollect,

    The simple answer is that polymer notes are here to say, in my opinion. I note some of the issues that you have raised but the benefits out weight that many times over. One of the main reasons for having polymer notes was anti counterfeiting. Since the introduction of polymer notes in Australia and NZ, the rates of counterfeiting notes have reduced significantly. It’s recyclable, last longer, and it’s washable too (more hygiene). Todate more than 30+ countries have released polymer/plastic notes. Whilst many of these were mainly commemorative notes, more and more countries are adopting them on a trail basis. India has recently announced that it will also release polymer notes (10 rupees) and Canada will be progressively releasing full polymer notes starting in 2011. Of course the sticky point at the moment is the cost of manufacturing them, but the benefits would out weight this many times. Australia $50 polymer notes printed in 1995 are still circulating today. Imagine after 15 years. You will not find a paper notes can survive that long. At best is 24 months for a paper note. I am not surprised if more polymer notes are released in Malaysia in the near future.

    The reason we asked you was because there weren't many issues of polymer notes over here or else where as compared to the normal paper notes. And you pointed out the cost factor. Thanks for the info.

    Hi,

    I am afraid I can’t help you on this. I believe that banknotes from say Scotland and Northern Ireland may not be negotiatable at commercial banks in Europe. However, I was once told by a German that some banks in Germany even provide Scottish banknotes for holidays makers who want to visit Scotland. Have you tried those Money Changers? They might accept them. If those notes that you have at the moment are no longer current issues, perhaps try your local banknote dealers. This way, you may even get back more than the face value, especially if they are in uncirculated condition. Good luck.
