    Description

    THE NEW ENGLISH £5 NOTE CAN PLAY VINYL RECORDS
    Michael Ridge, a sound artist from Norwich, England hit the headlines hen he posted a video on YouTube showing him playing a vinyl record with the new £5 note. The polymer edges on the new banknote, which are relatively sharp and firm, are able to get into the tiny grooves on vinyl records, creating sound much like a stylus needle.

    Bank Of England 1st Polymer Issue
    13 September 2016 - Bank of England press release
    http://www.bankofengland.co.uk/publications/Documents/news/2016/069.pdf
    The Bank of England’s first polymer note, the new £5 featuring "Sir Winston Churchill" entered circulation on Tuesday 13 September 2016.
    What is different about The New Fiver?
    The new £5 note is made from polymer, a thin, flexible plastic material. It has a new generation of security features, making it even harder to counterfeit.
    Polymer is resistant to dirt and moisture, and lasts around 2.5 times longer than paper. Paper £5 notes will be gradually withdrawn as they are banked by retailers and businesses.
    The old £5 paper notes will be out of circulation on 5 May 2017, after which they will cease to be legal tender.
    A new
    polymer £10 featuring Jane Austen
    in summer 2017, followed by the
    J.M.W. Turner £20
    note by 2020.
    The new polymer notes will still have tiered sizing, bold numerals and a similar color palette to the current notes to help blind and visually impaired people tell the difference between them.
    Polymer £10 and £20 notes will also have a tactile feature created by a series of raised dots.
    People with visual impairments will be able to tell the £5 note apart because it does not have this feature.
