The new look of banknotes featuring the image of King Charles has been unveiled by the Bank of England.
The portrait will be the only change to existing designs of £5, £10, £20 and £50 notes and will start to enter circulation from mid-2024.
Other than that, they are unchanged from the existing designs.
“I am very proud that the bank is releasing the design of our new banknotes, which will carry a portrait of King Charles III,” Bank of England governor, Andrew Bailey, said.
“This is a significant moment, as the King is only the second monarch to feature on our banknotes. People will be able to use these new notes as they start to enter circulation in 2024.”
The Queen first appeared on the Bank of England’s banknotes in 1960.
