Argentina New Series B 100 Peso Banknote

Argentina New Series B 100 Peso Banknote Confirmed

Argentina's government will issue a new 100 peso ($22) note bearing an image of former First Lady
Eva Peron to mark the 60th anniversary of her death today.





President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, an admirer of the woman known to Argentines as Evita, said the template for the new bill was rescued from a 1952 design of a 5-peso note that was hidden for years at the country’s mint. The note was banned from ever circulating by the military junta that toppled Evita’s husband, former President Juan Domingo Peron, in a 1955 coup.

“Eva wasn’t perfect, she wasn’t a saint, but rather a woman of humble origin who found herself with a man and with a people,” Fernandez, whose own rise to power began alongside her deceased husband, former President Nestor Kirchner, said yesterday.

The government’s unveiling of the Evita peso bill comes as Argentines have been dumping their currency in favor of theU.S. dollar to ward against stalling growth in South America’s second-biggest economy and inflation that private economists estimate at 24 percent.

Since her re-election in October, Fernandez has imposed foreign exchange limits to stem capital flight that last year doubled to $21.5 billion. Her ban on most foreign currency purchases by individuals has forced argentines to turn to the unregulated market, driving up the dollar to 6.79 pesos, a 48 percent premium over the official rate.


Peronist Icon

Evita remains an icon of the ruling Peronist party, emblazoning banners at pro-government rallies where Fernandez frequently invokes her legacy as a champion of the poor.
To mark the anniversary of her death from cancer at the age of 33, Fernandez last yearinaugurated a 15-ton, 100-foot iron portrait of Evita that hangs from the side of the Social Development ministry along Buenos Aires’ busiest avenue.
Speaking yesterday from the presidential palace with a scale model of that mural behind her, Fernandez said that authorities had first wanted to honor Evita with a commemorative issue of banknotes worth 20 million pesos. The idea caught on and Fernandez said that she’s now ordered authorities to use her likeness to replace that of former President Julio Argentino Roca on all future printings of the 100-peso bills.
Roca served two terms as president after leading an 1878 military campaign of extermination against Indian groups known as the Conquest of the Desert, which cleared the way for settlement of the country’s hinterland.
“Eva Peron gives a sense of peace and tranquility,” Fernandez said.

New US Dollars $100 Banknote

NEW US $100 Dollars Banknotes







The Federal Reserve is making it rain new hundred dollar bills on October 8, 2013. They're more colorful, more secure, and easier to authenticate, but harder to replicate. Here's everything that's changed.
Most of the benjamins you see today were designed way back in 1996. Sounds pretty old, right? An overhauled hundo was supposed to enter into circulation in February of 2011, but production was shut down a few months prior because of a manufacturing flaw that revealed a blank space in the note when a crease formed. But the latest batch of seems to be a big improvement.
If you were contemplating going into the counterfeiting business, you'll be talked out of it by the time you see how the Treasury Department has booby-trapped this bill. It looks nearly impossible to duplicate.

Australia 1st Banknote sold for $3.5Millions

Australia 1st Banknote




Australia first banknote is set to go on sale for $3.5 million by Coinworks in a private sale. The 10-shilling note issued in 1 May 1913 is the first banknote of the Commonwealth of Australia with a Serial Number M000001. The unique note will be exhibited in the Hall of Honour at the World Stamp Expo in Melbourne from May 10 to 15. The note is being sold through Coinworks in Melbourne on behalf of administrators McGrathNicol.



The note displayed the Commonwealth Coat of Arms and a scene of the Goulburn Weir, Victoria on the reverse. Built between 1887 and 1891, the Goulburn Weir was an advanced structure for its time, and an important component in Australia's irrigation scheme.



On 1st May, 1913 a numbering ceremony was held at the King's Warehouse, Victoria, when Judith Denman, the infant daughter of the Governor-General Lord Denman, numbered the first Australian currency note with the serial number M 000001. The Number One Note was hand numbered by the Governor General’s five year old daughter Judith Denman. The note was subsequently presented to her by Prime Minister Andrew Fisher. Lord Denman resigned his position as Governor General in 1914 and the family returned to England. The Honourable Anne Judith Denman died in 1987.

Her effects were being sorted in 1999 and note M000001 turned up in a letter file housed in a contemporary Government House envelope marked in pencil “Judith’s 10/- Note May 1at 1913”. The Number One Note is offered with the accompanying historical envelope.



A private collector in Sydney subsequently purchased the note for $1 million in 2000. It was then sold in 2008 to a private note dealer for almost $2 million, the highest paid for an Australian note or coin. It is believed that only about 20 of the 10-shillings notes remain in circulation.

Award winning craftsman Anton Gerner has been commissioned by Coinworks to produce a presentation box for the note. The note will be protected by glass in a frame that can easily be removed from a magnificent hand crafted Tasmanian wood presentation box.

Saturday 11 May has been declared ‘Number One Note’ Day. At 3pm on that day Australia Post will launch an official release of the ‘First Australian Banknote’ Stamp honouring the Number One Note.






New Bank Of England 10 Pounds Banknote

New Great Britain 10 Pounds Banknotes




On 24 July 2013, Bank of England Governor, Mark Carney, confirmed that Jane Austen will be feature on the next £10 note. The Jane Austen £10 banknote will be replacing Charles Darwin £10 banknote most probably in 2017. The portrait of the Pride and Prejudice author is adapted from a sketch drawn by her sister Cassandra Austen.


The Governor said: “Jane Austen certainly merits a place in the select group of historical
figures to appear on our banknotes. Her novels have an enduring and universal appeal and she is recognised as one of the greatest writers in English literature. As Austen joins Adam Smith, Boulton and Watt, and in future, Churchill, our notes will celebrate a diverse range of individuals who have contributed in a wide range of fields.”


Features of the design on the reverse of the Jane Austen note will include:
  • The quote – “I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading!” from Pride and Prejudice (Miss Bingley, Chapter XI).
  • Portrait of Jane Austen. Commissioned by James Edward Austen Leigh (Jane Austen’s nephew) in 1870, adapted from an original sketch of Jane Austen drawn by her sister, Cassandra Austen.
  • An illustration of Miss Elizabeth Bennet undertaking “The examination of all the letters which Jane had written to her”– from a drawing by Isabel Bishop (1902-1988).
  • The image of Godmersham Park. Godmersham was home of Edward Austen Knight, Jane Austen's brother. Jane Austen visited the house often and it is believed that it was the inspiration for a number of her novels.
  • Jane Austen’s writing table – the central design in the background is inspired by the 12 sided writing table, and writing quills, used by Jane Austen at Chawton Cottage.​
