Ardac Elite Update
When is the new Polymer £20 pound note released?
The new note is set to release on 20/02/2020, the 20th of February 2020.
Older £20 notes will still be viable until the date given for their withdrawal. The Bank of England will announce the withdrawal date after the new Polymer £20 note has been issued. The withdrawal date will have a six month notice, allowing older £20 notes to be traded into banks and post offices.
What are the security features of the new £20 pound note?
The new polymer 20 pound note contains a number of intricate security features that help to protect against fraud. The polymer note features foil patches with 3D images, holographic text that changes from one word to another and a hidden number that only appears under ultra-violet light.
Similar to previous notes, the new £20 polymer has raised dots that appear close to the price of the note. There are several transparent windows that appear on the note and help to identify the authenticity of the note.
The note features a large transparent window with a blue and yellow foil image. On the reverse side of the note, the foil image is silver. In the corner of the note is a second smaller window, with a raised surface. The raised surface shows a repeating pattern of the number 20, which can be seen and felt.
