Canada's new $10 bill is out today, featuring our Rosa Parks, Viola Demond. Viola was arrested for sitting in the whites-only section of a movie theatre in Nova Scotia in 1946.

There was a link to the story on Mundane Thread II by delicatemoth. It's certainly something to behold, Ted Bates lovingly gazing at two freshy-laid turds.
You should have started a new thread with the title "Shitcoin," although it probably would have been bannedLast edited by Nocturnal Submission; 15-01-2019, 11:02.

I had a £50 note out of a cash machine this afternoon. I have never, ever had a £50 note out of a cash machine. In fact I've never, ever had a £50 note.
I wonder if they are becoming respectable again. Though, given that people are using cash less and less, it would seem odd if they are starting to put them in cash machines. Anyway, I didn't have it for long and took it straight to the counter to change it into something else.

Most businesses here have signs up saying they won't accept $50 or $100 bills due to the volume of counterfeit ones. Most of them actually accept them if you simply thrust one at them and look like you're not prepared to have a big discussion about it.

Someone gave me one a few months ago: I think it must have been a friend reimbursing me for tickets. But it was very unusual to have one so I got rid of it sharpish, in M & S, which seemed to necessitate the store manager's permission to accept it and a bunch of quick forgery tests!

Incidentally, who uses cash these days and where? About the only people who require it from me are my barbers and the window cleaner. Oh, and charity collectors, who I never have any change for these days.

It's much quicker to pay in a pub with cards, I find, and I'm quite happy to put extremely small payments on my card, sometimes less than £1.
