Default All banknotes to have a 2D barcode?

There are good reasons for not confiscating money from an innocent end
user
simply because the serial no is on a list of stolen notes. There are
still
nearly 30 million pounds of stolen notes missing from the big robbery in
Essex a few months go, and that's just one robbery. The grand total
must be
much higher. Commerce would grind to a halt if everybody had to check
each
note against a database of stolen ones.


How would the general public check notes given in change, or from
cashback transactions, or even from a bank's cash machine?
