A little tatty but I don't mind Now I need to save up for the 500 euro note Report this Post to the Staff

tenbobbit Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 701 Posts	Posted 05/16/2015 4:21 pm Yes it is ShareBear, although trying to get a shop to take it may prove troublesome. The England £50 note is virtually impossible to spend in a lot of shops simply because they wouldn't know a fake from a real one Report this Post to the Staff
DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 08/18/2015 04:53 am Hate to disagree... (I will share this information which cost me £20 many years ago when someone said "Scottish notes are not legal tender...even in Scotland!) Officially Scottish notes (Which are issued by multiple banks up there) are listed as "acceptable tender" and the only legal tender of Scotland is British coinage. This has been tried in court where someone refused to take Scottish money and requested payment in pound coins but the judge told them that the offer of Scottish money represented payment of the debt and if they didn't want to accept it was their problem. So in essence it is legal tender but officially it is "acceptable tender" even in Scotland. PS if someone ever says "I bet you £20 you're wrong" it isn't wise to take such a wager without first checking google. In England however the banknotes are all issued by the Bank of England and are legal tender in England. Edited by DavidUK 08/18/2015 04:56 am Report this Post to the Staff
