One of my favourite movies, and this incredible true story’s always fascinated me. “Operation Bernhard”, the Nazi plan to destroy Britain’s economy by flooding the country with perfectly produced counterfeit banknotes.
Well worth a watch if you haven’t already.
“The Counterfeiters.” (2007).

I don't feature too many #banknotes on Coin of Note. Admittedly that it mostly because I get distracted enough by #coins an #exonumia (#tokens and #medallions) that I am wary of diving into a whole new collecting realm.... but here's an interesting article in this week's E-Sylum on the Bank of England considering changing their note designs.

Axolotls in the news!
12.5 Million Stashed in Mexico because people think the 50 peso note with an axolotl is “Too Cute” to spend.

(Back when I was living there, it was just the Quetzalcoatl 5 peso coin...)

12.5 Million Stashed in Mexico Thanks to "Too Cute" Axolotl Bill

The Bank of England is currently asking the UK public for its views on potential themes for the next series of banknotes.

You can vote for up to three of these six themes:

- notable historical figures
- nature
- architecture and landmarks
- arts, culture and sport
- noteworthy milestones
- innovation

I chose "nature". Who wouldn't want to see a hedgehog on a banknote?

Inspired by the bank of England asking for ideas for new banknote design. I'm submitting these as my design for a Brexit Benefits themed note.

Dear #Numismatics friends, I would like you to share a piece you like (#Coins #CoinCollecting #Banknotes #Tokens #Medals #Exonumia) with the #SaturdayNightCoinShow hashtag. To make it easy, it doesn't strictly have to be "Saturday Night" - any time on the weekend or near is fine :)

Here's one I quite like, which I posted roughly a year ago. An N.C.B. Rawdon check from the UK: coinofnote.com/n-c-b-rawdon-ch #History #Histodons #Coal #Coalmining #Rail #Railway

Bueno.una curiosidad. Recién llegado a mí poder.

¿Es un sello?
¿Una moneda?

ES UN BILLETE

Dinero de necesidad. En plena guerra civil (1938) . En este caso es de 10 céntimos de Alfonso XIII de 1907

Ponían sellos en un cartón circular con el escudo del país y ya tenían dinero

I can't tell easily, but are the maple leaves at least *shaped* like Canadian maple leaves, as opposed to our polymer banknotes which depict NORWEGIAN maple leaves?

😂

(Sorry you have such an ugly carpet in the Senate. From photos, it doesn't look so terrible, but I can imagine things are rather different up close and in person! ☹️)

This week's E-Sylum has a review for a book which looks interesting. Supernote by Jim Davidson: coinbooks.org/v28/esylum_v28n1

The story of a multi-year investigation into the "Supernote" - a counterfeit $100 bill so undetectable, it threatened to destroy the global economy.

Fun fact I learned today: #Australia is one of the few countries that has achieved #genderparity on #banknotes - a woman appears on one side of every banknote in circulation 💵 The only other two major nations who have achieved this are #Denmark and #Sweden!

$5 - Queen Elizabeth II
$10 - Mary Gilmore
$20 - Mary Reibey
$50 - Edith Cowan
$100 - Nellie Melba

Don’t know some of them? I didn’t either, time for some reading!

I must confess, I wouldn't go so far as to call myself a #typography enthusiast, I do like a nice, practical font. Making no assertions either way about this one, I present to you: "Greed", a font inspired by the #font on US #currency: printmag.com/type-tuesday/gree

What do you think?

Most #coin #collectors (should) know about Numista: en.numista.com/ - it is a fantastic #resource to look up information on #coins, #exonumia (#tokens, #medallions, etc), #banknotes and more. Now they have added a #literature section for #Bibliophile!

I do enjoy birds on coins: coinofnote.com/tag/birds/

So here's an article from this week's E-Sylum with a book I'll be looking into: "Endangered parrots of the world, on stamps, coins and banknotes" by Sushil Kumar Agrawal
