The new banknotes featuring King Charles III entered circulation today (June 5), replacing those bearing the face of Queen Elizabeth II, and people queued to get their hands on them
Royal enthusiasts have been eagerly lining up to acquire the first-ever banknotes featuring King Charles, signalling the dawn of a new era.
In line with previous designs, the visage of His Majesty graces the £5, £10, £20 and £50 polymer notes. These will be printed only as replacements for worn-out notes to minimise costs and environmental impact associated with the transition. "Once the doors open, there's the usual security checks and then straight into the bank counter where they'll swap your old banknotes for equivalent new ones. The queue is quite short so if you fancy doing something a bit different, they will swap up to £300 of QEII banknotes for CRIII equivalents for the next five days."
He also mentioned: "Just bring the notes and proof ID. And you get to see a small bit of the grand interior of the Bank of England as well."
