Lake District £1 Beatrix Potter 2018 Unc

Over the years, several towns and communities in the UK have issued their own paper currency. It was intended to circulate in the local community with traders agreeing to accept these special notes alongside more traditional forms of payment. The benefits were that residents were encouraged to shop locally. The Lake District issues, presented here, served as attractive souvenirs if they were not spent. Quite a few towns took up the idea but sadly now, most of the schemes have closed not helped by the lockdowns during the pandemic which increased the number of contactless payments. We were delighted to be able to offer this Lake District Local £1 2018 note, a Pink and yellow note featuring Beatrix Potter and sailing boats on lake in Uncirculated condition.
