Wasen't that a Scottish banknote? I know that Scotland is a part of
the UK but it is not "British". Noteboy should have more to say about that. |

Whatever gave you that idea? :-) Another examples of someone getting confused with Scotland/England/Britain, this is an extremely common confusion in England, it's amazing and a sad reflection on the English education system. (Scotland has an entirely separate one) The writer of the article should have used "English" and not "British" and they would have been correct. If the Beatles appeared on a Bank of England note it would be the first time a person born in the 20th century had appeared on an English note but the second time for a British note, i.e. a note issued in Britain, which Scotland is part of, unfortunately. I once sent for a list of "British" notes for sale expecting to receive a list of notes issued in various parts of Britain (Scotland England and maybe Northern Ireland, The Channel Islands and The Isle of Man) but the list consisted of English notes only, the seller should have described the list as consisting of "English" notes. As I don't collect foreign notes it was of no use to me. Billy |

Includes....
The musicians would be the first people born in the 20th century to feature on a British banknote. What about the golfer on the recent Scotish note... ? They seem to have forgetten him....

Pink Floyd is getting their own note?
They did have a song called "Money" so it would seem appropriate. |
