Hi Eric
I also looking forward for a complete change
Hopefully something new like Hybrid Notes.
Vibrant and colourful. Just like Bermuda lastest issue
As for images, maybe place of interests or Singapore Landmarks.
I prefer Singapore waterfront. Since our Gov is selling so hard
Singapore image. F1, YOG, AYG etc… Banknotes is also 1 of the way
Let hope we can see the new Banknotes in the near future
Regards
Vincent

Hello Eric, I suppose this series of banknotes might still be around for at least the next 5 years. Certainly, the previous series of notes were more colourful and vibrant in terms of graphics, each featuring something different on the front and back. My guess is that they are trying to follow the worldwide trend of featuring portraits of famous people on banknotes.

I personally find the current Singapore Yusof bin Ishak banknotes Design, in terms of its’s Art Direction & Creative Direction, is utterly poor & uninteresting. The Orhids and the Birds series were the proudest moment of our time. The boat series were great too. Does anyone know When is the next cycle for Singapore new banknotes.

Bin Hee Jum: Thanks for the information! I've just written a post regarding the new $50 notes. I've been trying so many ATMs around Singapore, which one did you get your notes from?

Now they even printed $50 with Goh Choh Tong signature. I just got 3 pieces from ATM today with prefix 3EA with 1 square mark below the word ART

Aidan Work: Thank you for sharing the interesting link!

thomas: Perhaps you may like to try selling them on ebay? The identical numbers for $2 polymer notes are fairly common due to the arrangement of serial number when printing and the high error rate.

Wei Jie,
It is interesting that the new Singaporean $100 note is a paper note.I had thought that the Monetary Authority of Singapore were going to print all denominations on polymer plastic.

Both Brunei & Singapore have made it very difficult for collectors to complete a full series through issuing banknotes denominated above B$100 & S$100,especially with notes for $1,000 & $10,000.

How often does a note denominated above $100 turn up in change?
