2002 UK (England) £5.00 Notes

I had forgotten about this. It seems that when the five pound notes were first released that the serial numbers could be worn off because of serial number was applied on top of the varnish rather than under.

Hopefully someone who knows more about banknotes can comment on the value.

Questions that they would probably ask would be, what is the condition of the notes? Are they crisp bank new notes? What serial numbers are on the notes?

They will be worth more than face value. The question, of course, is how much? I can't help with this, but maybe Pam West banknotes can?

Aproximately 3 million were put into circulation and not really sort after as being quite a recent issue and lots of them most collectors will have one.

if they are MINT you should get between £10 and £15 to a collector but have the agravation of trying to sell them,probably best to put them away.

Sorry I should of read your post properly ,if they are from an estate they are better sold to a dealer in one go and would be surprised if you are offered much more than face value.
