For simplicity, I've only included the northern Ireland (that continues to be a part of the UK) while discussing the history of regional banks in Ireland, prior to the partition. It's not an issue as long as you talk about the history of banking only in these regions.
Including Ireland and its currency (pre/post-partition) would make this video too long and too complicated.

@@Kyzerii you not we
Only British people know the anxiety that builds up whilst you're waiting in line to pay with a Scottish bank note in England 😂
It's fine as long as you don't scream at us that Scotland is in the UK when we look at the note. We (shop assistants) have to look to see if it's not fake and is still in circulation. We check all notes but English notes being all the same makes it very quick so customers don't realise we're doing it. There's also the confusion over which way round to put it in the till. Which side is the front?
@@r.brooks5287 its your lots attitude when you take our, fair enough it needs inspected but its like a CID investigation with monopoly money and the English wonder why we really can't be arsed with it... we come across English notes daily, there's a couple in my wallet, I highly doubt that's not the same as England.
@@Mr_Makina No, and that is why it's a problem. Banks should leave more non English notes in circulation in England rather than taking them straight out. Familiarity would make it much easier. In twenty years of similar jobs, I've only dealt with one Bank of Belfast £5 and no other NI notes at all. Also, new Scottish £20s are obvious but telling the still legal older ones from the even older no longer legal ones isn't easy when we don't see either often and the customer is glaring at us. I'm in Lincolnshire so there might be more in circulation further north, but I think it's a case of the banks removing them as soon as they can.
@@r.brooks5287 i live in the North East and its the exact same, I've seen Scottish notes maybe a handful of times while in England.
Agreed, I live in the South East and haven’t seen a Scottish note since maybe 2002 and that was only because I was working in London briefly. Even then Scottish notes although valid, would not be accepted by many English people nor would most retailers except them, only banks. It really is a case of the notes are so extremely rare, it is sensible to decline them. Scotland wouldn’t accept notes they weren’t familiar with either
A few years ago, my father was on vacation in Scotland. He had Bank of Scotland notes and was soon going to be traveling to London. He asked a bank teller if his Bank of Scotland notes would work in London and the teller told him that they were valid currency, but offered to exchange them for Bank of England notes because “some people in London might look askance at them”.
yeah lad cant get your hair cut with a scottish note
@@MrFriendlyCsgoContent yeah. You can use em in Asda and Tesco, and that.. but not in local shops
How much security is actually needed for these? I feel like if it was stolen, it would be very hard to spend, and presumably the bank could mark it as stolen by serial number and make another
Exactly why they dont bother adding any security features to the notes. No-one knows what they are, and everyone that does knows that you shouldnt have them.
They aren’t legal tender, so the premise is all wrong. Their no different to a promissory note
They are only valuable to other banks and I can imagine a whole security check needs to be made before they are used, like a meeting between the bank managers and a whole procedure with signatures and checks to transfer the money so they are useless to normal people

You'd never able to pick it up because it weighs 100 million pounds.
And then u put it in the bin because you think it is fake
The Giants and Titans are also used internally within the Bank of England as far as I know. Ordinary notes can only be released for circulation if the requisite Giants and Titans are held.
I work in a supermarket and we’re constantly getting taught to look for any inconsistencies in notes, and know a fiver like the back of our hands, so when you’re given a bank note from not the BoE it’s jarring as you can’t really know if it is counterfeit or not, so we just accept them, plus they look REALLY cool, and think it’s a shame that they aren’t more common

Bank of England notes, in England, can also be refused by one party of a transaction, and the government has no power to force them to change their mind. You can literally price your goods in pounds then demand contactless payments only, effectively not recognising paper money as pounds. In the UK, the legal status of cash is just that the issuing authority promises that it is worth what's printed on it at that particular authority. Legal tender means that the government recognises the right of particular authorities to do this, and not others. It's only used in trade if both parties agree to use it as a medium. As a result, it is perfectly legal for someone to demand trading in euros or bitcoin or toilet rolls and not in pounds, and if both parties agree then so be it. This is different from the government issuing money bearing the signatures of treasury secretaries, which the government then enforce must be accepted in trade.
In Scotland at least legal tender means that a payment of a court debt made in that tender cannot be refused. In Scotland that means coins since we have no recognised legal tender notes. But unless the meaning is different South of the border then at the ultimate stage the government can force you to accept payment in legal tender. It's not just about issuing. The Bank of England doesn't issue coins for example, the Royal Mint does. But both coins and BoE notes are legal tender in England. Whereas any can issue Legal Paper or Bills of Exchange (which is the legal status of Scots notes). Companies sometimes also issue bills of exchange for certain things (old fashioned cheques are also Bills of Exchange) but Scottish notes are a special subset with defined legal protections.
@@angusmcewing3557 Yes. Legal tender, in any jurisdiction, also means that if a participating party, either as one of the trading parties or an arbiter, is the government, then the transaction must be in the legal tender. It's when a purely private trade is concerned where the laws may differ.
@@tt-ew7rx Parties can naturally agree any terms they wish, subject to statutory or common law restrictions. But at the end of the day one party either gets paid first or does the work first and if you need to get paid when a party breaks contract you need courts to enforce. A contract doesn't grant the right to be paid, but the right to sue to be paid, as is a well known aphorism amongst contract lawyers.
Like paying for something in 1p coins.

Ayo where r u at?
If you change notes abroad (if you can) you get a lower exchange rate for Scottish and NI notes than English notes. It’s more the higher fraud risk than actually classing them a less actual value
When the Hungarian pengő was replaced by the forint in 1946, all the pengő notes in circulation were worth less than $0.40 USD. The new forint was worth 400 octillion pengő.
Edited to add: I misread the OP, people have rightfully corrected me, I'll leave my original comment below for context
1 pengő = 0.40 USD
1 forint = 400 octillion pengő
then:
1 forint= 0.40 USD/pengő ×400 octillion pengő = 160 octillion USD
I sincerely doubt that's correct

Great video - only issue is that Northern Ireland wasn't a separate political entity like it is today at that time, Ireland in its entirity was part of the UK. Northern Ireland was broken off in 1922 and remained part of the UK, when the Irish Free State then came to power south of the border.

English here, I'm not against Scottish, Welsh or Northern Irish banknotes, in fact I never even knew they existed. I would have probably refused them as a shopkeeper too. Reason, they vary too much from the English pound note so I don't blame shopkeepers for thinking they're not legitimate. Partially to blame is the lack of status, but there is an incredible lack of design consistency. Want proof? Verticle bank notes.
I understand that there are a lot of bank note variations but I don’t want all the bank notes to just be Bank of England as the danske bank, Ulster bank and bank of Ireland notes shows what Northern Ireland is. It’s unique and shows NI not just England 🏴
pretty sure ive seen (pictures of) vertical euros.
Fantastic video! As an American traveling in the UK last year (2019), I thought it was interesting that after a return trip from Edinburgh to London, the employees behind the counter at a store in London had to discuss if my Scottish bills were legit or not. This clarifies it big times!
Yeah I work in a store and I accept them because I’m not an idiot but most people are so I apologise about that haha
There was a large problem a few years ago with criminals trying to pass fake Scottish notes in England. Mainly because they are hardly ever seen south of the boarder so most shop workers wouldn't know what a legit one looks like. (not to mention the 3 different designs)
I would accept Scottish and Northern Irish notes but excluding the £1 and £100 denominations which do not exist in bank of England notes (and not all 7 of the others issue them either)
I am English, and have lived here my whole life, and it wasn't until a few months ago that I discovered that they have different banknotes in Scotland. My mind was completely blown
Happens all the time when I go to England to see my family. They always think my northern Irish notes are fake
A really excellent video with accurate up to date information. The only thing I may add is that Scottish notes are an 'Authorised' currency and Northern Irish notes are an 'Accepted' currency. Great video 👏
Also, the Scottish notes were distrusted as they were easier to counterfeit at one point in time. Now, not the case but living up North it was crushing when my £10 was worth 0.

in almost thirty years of living in England, I don't know if i ever once saw a scottish bank note. I have seen money from the Isle of Man sometimes, but never from scotland or northern ireland. I think in england there only use is when scottish people visit, use them in a shop, and then the shop deposits them in a bank. They are not really in circulation- you wouldn't get them from an ATM and a shop would not given you any back in your change. I wouldn't know if i saw one if it was real or forged
I bet you didn't know but money from Isle of Man is not legal tender in the UK but because they look the same as the UK ones people accept them anyway as seen lots of Isle of Man coins. But under the law it is not legal tender at all even banks can reject them but they dont as it easy to get rid of as looks identical to the UK ones.

The Ulster Bank vertical notes actually weren’t the first in the country. Danske Bank (which was then Northern Bank) released a vertical polymer note to commemorate the turn of the millennium. Their production stopped in 2004.
Fact check: the Northern Bank (then owned by an Australian bank, later sold to Danske) was issuing polymer notes at least as far back as 2008. I still have one of them.

I'm from Canada, but I only guess what a nightmare retail workers in Scotland have to deal with handling multiple types, sizes, designs of currency.
All notes of the same denomination are the same size and colour. Its not really an issue. £1 is green, $5 is blue, £10 is brown, £20 is purple, £50 is, shit dont remember, $100 is red.
Each denomination of note is the same colour, makes it easier. Every country in the EU, that use the Euro, issue their one notes. They're all accepted in every nation in the Eurozone. People who deal with cash, they know what to look out for, or they should. England seems to think it's always the exception.
its the same in Northern Ireland where i am from its easy we have 3 banks that issue their own notes
Ulster Bank
Danske Bank (used to be called Northern Bank til it was taken over)
Bank of Ireland
normal bank of england notes circulate alongside these but its all UK pounds and all worth the same
It’s not really a hassle to retail workers in Northern Ireland… it’s only when we go to England and pay for stuff in NI/ Scottish bank notes. They always get confused

I once was given a scottish 10 pound note and Yes I genuinely had never seen one before and questioned if I could even spend it or if it would be accepted as legal currency and I got rid of it as fast as I could by using it at the corner shop. I disagree with the suggestion that they should just use bank of england notes, they made their own stylized currency which has features from their history and culture, we should respect that, we're not here to take away their identify but we definitely need more awareness that their currency exists and is fully usable and should be accepted throughout the UK.
this was lovely to watch with the queen R.I.P our lady.
Honestly if there was just one variant per country it'd actually be simple, you could identify if something was Scottish instead of if something was from the north or south.
That and there needs to be better education on money because well, it's a pretty huge problem for tourism if people can't spend their money.

Our Scotland notes are pretty! We got otters and rabbie burns and a bunch of cool stuff!
My dad when we visited England loved given his Scottish note to English retailers, when they got rejected he loved reminding him "it's legal Tender!", Like, we were laughing and talking the piss out of them, it was all a laugh usually we just had some English notes on us because the Scottish notes get rejected on a regular basis but we just used them for a laugh because of the English reaction to the notes.
Lol. There's no such thing as "legal tender". You knew this but they didn't
The only reason they reject the notes is on they dont know if it is real or not as they are not taught on what to look for and if they do accept it it really hard to give away as people dont want to be paid back in the note as it is hard to give away to other places and only place to go is a bank or post office as they have to accept it that is the only place you can scream legal tender is bank or post office as they cant reject it. So it is just a pain to have to go to change it over to english note if you have them that is why they dont accept them.
@@giggity4670 Banks and Post Office's can refuse, but don't as per the directive of the Bank of England that they shouldn't (except in certain circumstances).

The final nail in the coffin in terms of quality through would be the vocals, you seem to have upgraded the mic or at the very least done some great EQ to a bad mic, regardless there remains a LOT of reverb in the form of background echo, now I know most people can't just hang sound blankets, cloth posters, move their room around or have a separate studio, but maybe look into getting a pen condenser like the AT-4053B, it'll cut a LOT of that out and make your boomy voice shine through, even without EQ.
Anyway, see yall in 2023, with love

Hey why did the map spin around so much? Other than that a great video, i had no idea there were unique banknotes for Scotland and northern Ireland
Keep up the good work!
we are in the east midlands and we have a lot of scots living in our village so often see them when im working at the village shop. i always take them in my pay as i love collecting the notes. ive nearly got all the coins so started on notes. only one im concerned with getting atm is a paper £50. seeing less and less atm
Because the paper £50 notes is going out of circulation and getting replaced by the polymer ones but they are only making half the amount they did in paper so a £50 notes is getting very rare to see now so if you see one try and keep it as think bank want to get rid of them all soon. And the paper £50 notes is worth more then £50 now on ebay as it is so rare to get one so if you get one for sure keep it as worth a bit now.
Danske Bank is a danish bank. Its name literally means: Danish Bank.
Yea but for some reason Ireland also got Danske Bank
@@Emil215p Danske Bank took over the Northern Irish bank Northern Bank.
@@Emil215p It's a big bank.
Wow Interesting, Danske Bank prints NI bank notes because it took over northern bank.
Thank you for this vital information Simon
Please upload videos more frequently i like your videos
A correction. Danske Bank in Northern Ireland does not have banknote issuing powers. It is Northern Bank (trading as Danske Bank) who legally continue to have those powers.

Its gotten to the point where English people walking by when your Scottish notes are rejected will occasionally offer to trade you for an English one or change to save the hassle of going to a bank. The amount of times a business has rejected my Scottish notes when ive been on holiday in England is ridiculous. To the point where i have to actively withdraw money in England at the first chance i can when on holiday rather than carry it with me. It shouldn't be like this and is sheer ignorance on English businesses behalf.
its not ignorance of the business, its negligence to train their staff. you have to teach people to identify money so that they can reject fraudulent money, but if you dont teach them about all of the notes, then theyre going to make errors.
@@jonathanodude6660 so..ignorance of the business
@@mrcrbgaming2412 ignorance and negligence are different. lots of businesses know about things they dont care to fix or explore. theyre choosing not to train their staff.
@@jonathanodude6660 What's the point of training staff on 50 different bank notes from 7 different banks and how to tell if they're fraudulent or not when you have the right to refuse it as legal tender?
Yea not really ignorance it is more the point they cant give it back in change as no one want them so they have to bank it only and if you get few bank notes just more money they cant shift back so have to only be banked at the bank as just hassle to use and no one wants to get one as even in schotland they can refuse the bank of england ones if they want to. Think more just plan ahead and like you say just go to a bank or post office to change it as easier that way then change it back to Scottish when back home so saves the hassle.
Imagine finding this note in a bank on the floor
Here in North England we are that close to Scotland we get Scottish ones quite often
I am English but i do like the Scottish notes they are interesting showing their cultural history and i have had some in the past and have had no problems using them; As of yet i have not seen any Northern Irish notes
I am from Northern Ireland and we have three banks here that issue their own banknotes Ulster bank Bank of Ireland and Danske bank (formerly Northern Bank) Bank of England notes circulate here as normal.
