£100 note

Has the Bank of England ever issued a £100 note? 195.92.40.49 17:29, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes. There's a section on £100 notes in the article. Headhitter (talk) 11:25, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

Pictures

Are there any pictures of the million and ten million pound notes? or are they pretty plain by comparison as they don't leave the banks? Also a picture of an old 10/- note would be good —Preceding unsigned comment added by Felneymike (talk • contribs) 18:10, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

• As would a picture of the £1 note, featuring Sir Isaac Newton… — OwenBlacker 13:51, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Issuance of the 1 & 2 Pound Notes

According to the Thomas Raikes article, the 1 & 2 pound notes were issued on the 27th of February in 1797. There is no reference cited there, but the article does mention February 26 as being a Sunday in which the Privy council met to discuss issuing them. I checked, and February 26 was in fact a Sunday. Haven't found a reliable reference as of yet, but it sounds reasonable. Kentholke (talk) 17:50, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Counterfeit £5 note Forgednote.jpg

The image description page for the counterfeit £5 note Forgednote.jpg says "An Operation Bernhard forgery of the Bank of England five pound note" while the caption in the article says "A counterfeit £5 note forged by the Jewish Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp prisoners". Both can't be right. I consider the Operation Bernhard source as most likely and have edited the image caption accordingly. The concentration camps where counterfeits were produced are found in the Operation Bernhard article.

Separate Articles

Can all the individual denominations of banknotes be split into their own articles, like the coins are or the Euro notes? thanks 92.13.1.142 (talk) 22:00, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

1 million and 100 million pound banknotes displayed

This video shows the appearance of the 1 million and 100 million notes (giants and titans). I'm not sure how it would directly relate to the article, but perhaps it could be useful in some way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChameleonXVX (talk • contribs) 16:55, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Reintroduction of £25 note

I can find no outside reference to the reintroduction of a £25 note (as mentioned by the April 9th 2015 edit from 62.232.38.186) and certainly nothing is mentioned on the BoE website. I'm inclined to suggest the edit may be vandalism. --20.133.0.8 (talk) 12:29, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

legal tender in Scotland?

There reads: Bank of England notes are not legal tender in Scotland and Northern Ireland, but are accepted there along with other notes.
Not legal tender, but still accepted? I don't get it? I thought that legal tender means the item is acceptable as payment. I guess that is not the case? 85.76.49.255 (talk) 02:24, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

The clue is in the word "legal". English notes may be widely accepted in Scotland and Northern Ireland but there is no legal requirement to accept them in payment. See Legal tender. 17:38, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

Photo vandalism?

When you hover over a link from another page to this one you get a photo of someone holding up their middle finger! I dont think that can be right but dont know how to solve this? Thegraciousfew (talk) 11:38, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

I cannot reproduce that. Can you please specify exactly how to make that happen, i.e. what link on what page shows an image on hover over? BabelStone (talk) 13:05, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

It's not happening anymore, clearly someone has sorted it. Thegraciousfew (talk) 07:12, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Malicious link?

When I click on the worldbanknotescoins.com links, it seems to take me to a different site, and my antivirus software says that that site is malicious. Can someone with more knowledge than I have check this out? Alekksandr (talk) 13:06, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
