King Charles banknotes go for 11 times face value after… full story below πππ
Banknotes with a face value of Β£78,430 have raised more than 11 times that amount for charity following a series of auctions.
New Β£5, Β£10, Β£20 and Β£50 notes featuring King Charles III entered circulation in June.
He received a full set of the first issues – each with a serial number ending 000001 – but hundreds of other low serial numbered banknotes went under the hammer.
One single Β£10 note with the serial number HB01 000002 sold for Β£17,000 during bidding.
During another lot, a sheet of 40 connected Β£50 notes – with a face value of Β£2,000 – sold for Β£26,000. That was a record for any Bank of England auction.
The four sales run by auctioneers Spink in London raised Β£914,127 in total.
Collectors seek banknotes which come as close to the 000001 serial number as possible, hence the large amounts raised.
When the notes entered circulation in June, the Post Office reported collectors visiting branches which had stocks of the notes during the first day. There was also an early queue outside the Bank of England in London.
Sarah John, the Bank’s chief cashier – whose signature is on the notes – said she was “thrilled” that such such a “remarkable” amount was raised.
The proceeds will be shared equally between 10 charities chosen by the Bank:
