East Caribbean States - This is a commemorative polymer note of $50 issued in August 2024 for the celebration of Grenada's 50th Year of Independence anniversary from the British. Despite gaining full independence, the country adopted a unitary parliamentary system with King Charles III as the Head of State (King of Grenada) and has been represented by a Governor-General, Dame Cecile Ellen Fleurette La Grenade since 2013. Grenada was one of the founding members of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States when it was first established on 18.06.1981. Prior to this, Grenada was a member of the West Indies Associated States (together with Antigua, Dominica, Saint Christopher, Nevis, Anguilla, Saint Lucia and Saint Vincent). Grenada's association ended in 1974 when it became independent.

Happy Birthday KM - 4th October 2024

Hong Kong, Standard Chartered Bank - Here are the three known Standard Chartered Bank's banknotes issued with the date of 01.01.2023. The three notes are the $20, $50 and $500. It is not sure if others are also printed but not issued yet. The other two issuing-banknote commercial banks, Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation and Bank of China also released the denominations of $50 and $500 but none has released a full set for the 2023 series. However, Standard Chartered Bank did release a full set for the 2020 series from $20 to $1000.

Northern Ireland, Danske Bank - All three commercial banks in Northern Ireland have adopted polymer banknotes series since 2019. Unlike the Bank of Ireland and Ulster Bank, Danske Bank is the only bank that did not issue a £5 polymer note. So far the bank has only introduced the £10 and £20 notes, and it is very unlikely that the £50 or the £100 polymer notes will be introduced either. Here, I have the £20 note dated 25.07.2022.

Morocco - On 21.07.2024, I posted the two notes of 100 and 200 dirhams Series 2023 . Here I have added the remaining two notes of 20 and 50 dirhams all dated 2023. The notes for this series were released in stages. The first two notes of 100 and 200 dirhams were released in 2023 and the remaining two notes were made available in 2024.
