On 20.07.2020, both the Bank of Ireland and the Danske Bank released a new 20 pounds polymer note. The Bank of Ireland is the largest commercial bank in Northern Ireland.

The new 20 pounds note released by the Bank of Ireland has enhanced security features, including a holographic stripe, a clear window which can be seen from both sides of the note, and the color changing feature too. 

The design of the new note retains the iconic image of The Old Bushmills Distillery, in County Antrim. The Old Bushmills Distillery is the world’s oldest licensed whiskey distillery. The design of the Old Bushmills Distillery was first appeared on the banknotes in 2008 when three notes were issued to celebrate the 400th years of granting license to the Old Bushmills Distillery. The three commemorative notes issued were the £5, £10 and £20.

On the front of this £20 note features a representation of Hibernia alongside with the Coat of Arms of the six counties of Northern Ireland.

The new 20 pounds note is printed with the date 2nd October 2017. Unlike the previous two polymer notes issued. It appears that no replacement notes has been printed for this series.
