Macro- Man Drawer Money Find

Stopped being printed in 1984, no longer legal tender after 11th March 1988. It was in a 35mm film canister with some 'foreign' coins which are probably no longer legal tender in their home since the Euro established!!

Get pushed challenge was to fill the frame

How easily we forget. Great macro.

[Carole Sandford]

You easily forget what they looked like. Quite intricate patterns!

This is a fascinating subject that is definitely filling the frame. I am going to have to go check to see if I have one of these still!

Great find I wonder if it was being saved for something special.

Tells a good story of age

Good close look at a one pound note.

And since it’s no longer legal tender, you can’t get in trouble for taking and posting photos of it! Looks like it’s been around the block a few times.

And made out of paper - no plastic and holograms back then. :)

Interesting macro and facts! As far as I know even when it's not being printed or minted US currency is still valid. But then, we haven't changed the monetary system here so maybe that's the difference. I really like the intricacy of the pattern on this bill.
