DeviantlyD -> Canadian Bank Notes (8/17/2012 1:11:54 AM)

I know the polymer Canadian $100 bill came out over a year ago and the polymer Canadian $50 bill came out near the beginning of this year...but...I thought it would be cool for everyone to see what these bills are like. I want one of each! :)

Nice, a little bit better than our Ozzie money.
very similar.

LOL... as an American living in Canada it took a year before it all stopped looking like monopoly money to us. It's all so.... colorful :)

But yes, I DO like them and I DO think they are harder to counterfeit.

U.S. Currency is designed to feign duplication.

(Not at all to stop it).

I haven't seen them yet. That's what I get for using the debit card.

Maybe I'll take some out and put them back in.

Cool!

The Bank of Canada's image gallery offers still photos of various notes. I was pleased to see that the Queen is on the twenty. [:)]

"In 1988, Australia introduced its first polymer bank note and in 1996, Australia became the first country in the world to have a complete series of polymer notes. Polymer note technology was developed by Australia, and Australia prints polymer notes for a number of other countries"

FYI - I didn't even know we invented it. I am impressed.

Its all nice and pretty until you try and put it through a bill counter. The bingo hall I volunteer at doesn't see much of these $50 and $100 bill yet, but I can imagine the frustration that will be caused when the $10 and $20 bills come out. [:(]
