That's why old currency isn't valid after it's been changed though? That's why most countries have swapped to plastic notes at the same time as adding anti forgery things.

    Yeah in the UK old currency is fazed out in less than a year. £1 coins changed in 2016 and it only took a few months till the old design was invalid

    There's an overlap where both are valid for a few months and you can trade them in at post offices and banks but after that period is up it's just tough luck I guess

    That's stupid lol

    Edit: Do you guys like the government having this level of control over your money? Do you want for society to become completely reliant on the banking system?
