The rules are the same as for the coin version (I just replaced 'coin' with 'banknote'):


Quote:
1. You must own the banknote.
2. You must post a photo of the actual banknote you own. We do not care who took the photo. No stock photos allowed.
3. The banknote can be from any country.
4. The date needs to be validated as described below:
Common era dating is preferred, but it is acceptable if the date can be converted from another calendar.
It is also acceptable if the date can be determined to the exact year from other criteria.
If it is not obvious, please inform how the date is determined (links are okay).
5. One Year Per Day! This allows for more participation. The change to the next year will occur at Midnight Forum Time (US Eastern Time)
6. We must go in order! No going back to previous years, no jumping ahead to later years.
7. One person should not create multiple posts for each year unless someone else has posted in between or you are posting coins as part of a set (like a proof set, commemorative set, etc).
8. To help page loads and scrolling, please put one coin (one or two photos) per post.


We're starting with 2017.
As we need banknotes actually dated 2017 (not only issued this year) and there aren't many of those yet, we're allow for some more time to find them, take photos, and get accustomed to the thought that such thread exists in general Hence the following timeframe: post any 2017 note until Sunday May 28. Assuming someone manages to do it, on Monday May 29, we move on to 2016 with the normal one day - one year progression. If not, we wait...

Here's a list of notes dated 2017 (this may be incomplete, though): Nigeria - 5 naira, India - 10, 20, 50, 100 rupees, Euroland - 50 euros, Uzbekistan - 10000 som, Ghana - 5 cedis central bank anniversary, Philippines - 50, 1000 piso, Hungary - 20000 forint, Vietnam - 10000 dong, Romania - 1, 50 lei, Uganda - 1000 shillings.


We'll see how it goes

Darn in a few weeks there would probably have been a 2018 dated banknote (from the same World Cup series that produced a 2018 dated coin several months ago).
[EDIT: maybe not; its release was apparently pushed back to the next year.]

Since banknotes (especially with dates) are nowhere near as old as coins, we cannot possibly get all the way to 1492 like the other thread. I wonder how far back we can go...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this works with US notes, which, going back to the Civil War, often carry the same series date for many years of printing. As an example, series 1899 US Silver Certificates were printed well into the 1920s.

Please clarify this.

january1may, I wonder when we will start! Someone should get a 2017 eventually but will it happen within the next 3 days?
Coinfrog, yes I am aware of this fact (we too had notes dated 1994 printed for about 15 years without any changes). Despite that, I decided that if it says 1899 it's 1899 for the purpose of this thread.
Among coins there are also cases when the date doesn't reflect the actual year the coin was minted. In Poland, prime examples would be all coins dated 1949. Similatly, banknotes will often be issued for multiple years, and sometimes the year that's printed on them isn't one of them. However, the data on when a particular note was actually issued isn't available to everyone, sometimes you need a specialized catalog, and in some cases it isn't even known.
To keep it simple and involve as many people as possible (which we will need since it seems we've got much fewer currency than coin collectors here), I decided to stick with what's printed on the notes.
When posting, one may, of course, mention that the note was actually printed or put into circulation later.

It is actually dated 2016, though. Just wasn't released until 2017.

I'll go look for the Indian or Romanian 2017 notes next time I visit a numismatic shop (if there's still nothing eligible posted by then).

Yes, that's a 2016. Of course, despite not being posted in the correct order, this note will still count (in case we don't get another 2016 posted at the right time). However, it doesn't allow us to start moving as it's not a 2017.

january1may, these two may be the cheapest 2017s out of the ones that were issued so far. But don't feel obliged to purchase them just for the purpose of this thread.

Since we've already got one 2016, here's another.


This is the new Polish 20 zloty note:



10 and 20 zloty notes have been issued with this date.
The difference, compared to the 2012-dated notes, is that these have some sort of protective layer on both sides.

Does this note count? It's 2017 issue, and I'll get it in 2 weeks.

I would be surprised if any in the CCF has a Chinese tea brick to photograph, or
an ancient Sumerian clay tablet check with cuneform writing, or
early Bank of England goldsmith notes.

Nevertheless I hope we see some Assignats or Civil War banknotes.

Even if we suspend the you must own the note rule (assuming you would post the note you receive later on)...

... that image is way too small to read the date. I found a larger one at the BiH bank website but I can't read that date either!

I guess there was a very good reason why it was decided that stock photos weren't going to be allowed in such threads. So, no - this doesn't count.
