July has arrived, and there are 3 commemorative coins to be issued this month, including an ordinary commemorative coin of the Northeast Tiger and Leopard Park, which is highly anticipated by Tibetan friends.
However, more friends want to know, will there be a new commemorative banknote in the near future?
Here's good news for everyone, that is, in July, a new plastic commemorative banknote will be released, which may be of interest to many Tibetan friends.
At present, there are more and more plastic banknotes, I don't know how much you have collected?
The new plastic banknotes were issued in July
According to the news, Thailand will issue banknotes commemorating the 72nd anniversary of the king's birth on July 23.
It is a plastic banknote with a face value of 100 baht, with an issue of 10 million pieces, which can be directly circulated at the equivalent value. On both sides of this commemorative note, the image of the king is on both sides.
Recently, more and more Tibetans have begun to collect plastic banknotes and commemorative banknotes from other countries, especially in several neighboring countries, which are even more popular.
However, Thailand's commemorative banknotes are issued more frequently, and there are more than 30 kinds of commemorative banknotes with similar themes, so the collection value is not very high.
On the mainland, the issuance of commemorative banknotes is more restrained.
Nowadays, three different plastic commemorative banknotes have been issued, which are loved by many Tibetan friends. At the same time, the mainland will soon have a new plastic commemorative banknote to be issued, which is worth looking forward to.
Plastic banknotes on the mainland
The first plastic banknotes were issued in Australia in 1988. It uses a clear plastic film!
In 2000, the mainland also issued its first plastic banknote - a commemorative banknote to welcome the new century, which is now commonly known as the Dalong banknote.
This plastic banknote has a face value of 100 yuan and uses an Australian plastic substrate.
Due to the scarcity of circulation and the leading plastic banknotes, it has been popular among Tibetan friends.
It's just that in the following years, plastic banknotes were not issued again, and the reason is very simple, because the mainland began to develop its own printing technology for plastic banknotes.
In the past few years, the mainland's related technologies have reached the world's leading level.
At that time, the new version of the 5 yuan banknote had not been issued for a long time, and many Tibetan friends speculated that the 5 yuan banknote would be issued with plastic banknotes.
Although the follow-up 5 yuan plastic banknote failed, the new technology was applied to the plastic commemorative banknote of the Winter Olympics!
In a set of 2 Winter Olympic banknotes, 1 is a paper note and 1 is a plastic banknote. This beautifully shaped plastic banknote was a complete success in its issuance. It is also the first plastic banknote with independent intellectual property rights in mainland China.
It's just that because of the large number of issuances, this plastic banknote has become a face banknote.
More plastic banknotes are coming
After the mature use of the Winter Olympics banknotes, the mainland began to issue new plastic banknotes, that is, the extremely popular Zodiac dragon banknotes. It is still more than doubled and is very popular among Tibetan friends.
After the dragon banknote takes the lead, the follow-up zodiac banknotes will all be plastic banknotes.
This year alone, we will be welcoming a new plastic banknote – the Year of the Snake commemorative banknote.
There are also many Tibetan friends looking forward to whether the five versions of the banknote will also be upgraded to plastic banknotes after being used many times in commemorative banknotes. After all, plastic banknotes are highly durable, and they last more than 4 times longer than traditional banknotes.
