New 10 Pound polymer banknote

As we told you a few months ago, the Bank of England is renewing the notes of Pounds Sterling. This renovation brings changes in the design and changes in the material, as these new notes are made of polymer.

The first note of this new series is the 5 Pounds one that has already been in circulation for more than a year and the turn of the 10 Pound note has arrived.

At the moment the Bank of England has already revealed what will be the design of this new banknote where the writer Jane Austen will replace Charles Darwin. Jane Austen will be the second woman to appear on the British Pound notes, as the first (and only to date) is the Queen Elizabeth II.

When will the new note come into circulation?

The next 14 of September will begin the emission of the new ticket of 10 Pounds. From that moment they will live with the old 10 Pound note on paper that will be withdrawn in the spring of 2018. The exact date is yet to be confirmed.

We look forward to seeing them!
