Why is the £50 note rare & barely used?
(lemmy.nz)
Like, what’s the point of its existence when that denomination is difficult to come by since ATMs don’t disperse them. I mean, will they still refuse a £50 note when paying for a £45 purchase? They go full counterfeit detection mode just because an individual has it despite that being the real one (not fake). Also, why does the Bank of England keep printing more of that when they know people barely use it anyway?
Why not do what other countries do and just make the denominations physically larger as the value increases? Now it’s harder to wash and reprint forgeries. Also if you use different color paper for each denomination you have another way to prevent forgeries of the washing and reprinting kind.
British money already is different sizes and printed in different colours.
I guess brits can't read an entire thread since someone already said that.
I guess people from wherever you're from don't understand anything they're talking about before commenting online.
Ummmm....
Yes, downvote for asking why not fix your broken currency. That’ll encourage discussions.
You asked:
I explained why your large bills are easier to forge.
We don't even really have paper money any more, it's all polymer 🤷
Maybe say that instead of downvoting.
Same for you. Votes are public.

If they weren’t public, federation wouldn’t work.
