THAILAND ISSUES NEW 100-BAHT BANKNOTE

Here's another new banknote, this one from Thailand. -Editor

New 100-baht banknotes are available at commercial banks in Phuket and elsewhere throughout the country starting today, staff at the Bank of Thailand confirmed to the Phuket Gazette this morning.

Bank of Thailand Deputy Governor Paiboon Kittisrikangwan unveiled the new “Series 16” banknote on Tuesday.

“The design is to honor King Taksin 'The Great' for his contributions to the country,” Mr Paiboon said.

“It has several new and enhanced security features to facilitate authentication by banknote sorting machines and the general public, including visually impaired persons.”
