New 5 pound note

Apparently, find one that starts with the serial AA01 and put it on eBay, there are some going for stupid prices.

Some people are bonkers!  Some of these AA01 notes advertised have serial numbers over a million, they are never going to be rare! Most of us can have one for £5 if we wait a little time.

If you do find one, sell it now!

Definitely. Unless it's 000001 or something close, I doubt they'll be of any value to anyone.

Ah but the AD's are only worth about 2.50 each, I'll give you £50 for them though, just to help you out ;)

I think they are quality and should all be changed as they will be next year.

Chris salmon from Canada was the guy who pushed them forward EX- Cashier and saw the benefit.

I got ten of them first run and will always be worth a premium as the first run , even more so as the first Polymer.

Worst case is i get my money back :)

Apparently, the winner refused to pay up for an "AK47" serial No

Well colour me surprised !!!

ETA: Incidentally, as far as the guy who found his landline telephone No matched the last 6 digits on one of the fivers, evidently he isn't very competent at probability theory, by estimating the odds at trillions to one. I've had one myself in the past. Rare, but not that astronomic.

 

Quote

 

A painter and decorator was stunned when he brandished a £5 note in the pub and discovered it matched his home phone number - beating odds of a trillion-to-one.

Lee Sharman, 39, was in his local Wetherspoon's with his friends and received a fiver in change from a round.

When he examined the note more carefully he was flabbergasted to find the last six digits exactly matched his home number.

He claimed the estimated odds of a person finding their own landline on a five pound note was 1,200,000,000,000/1.

:D Did you read further down about the guy who listed the 'upside-down' fiver?

Yes. It's truly difficult to fathom that if the bidders were genuine, there are people who are really that dense <_<

Yes I cannot belive that the guy with the AK47 five pound note is upset that he has not been sent his £80 000 via paypal .

I always thought this country was full of idiots but he really takes the biscuit
