    The Royal Bank of Scotland Reveals Designs for New £5 And £10 On De La Rue’s Safeguard® Polymer Substrate

    Monday 25 April - today the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) has revealed the designs for its new £5 and £10 Safeguard® polymer banknotes to be introduced into circulation later this year and in 2017 respectively.

    Following a widespread public consultation exercise, the theme of ‘natural colour and light’ was chosen to underpin the design elements of these notes. RBS has also revealed that the Scottish novelist and poet Nan Shepherd features on the £5.

    The design makes maximum use of the clear window that is the hallmark of polymer banknotes. The RBS logo in the optically variable SPARK® Orbital™ ink appears in the clear window and can be seen from both sides of the note.

    Commenting on the launch, the Chairman of the RBS Scotland Board, Malcolm Buchanan, said: “People in Scotland will be using this money every day. It is quite right that they got to play an important role in designing it. This truly is the people’s money. Our thanks to De La Rue for playing their part in this important banknote project.”

    De La Rue’s Ruth Euling, Global Account Director, commented “De La Rue’s relationship with RBS dates back to the 1960s and we are very proud to continue to work with them as they reach another milestone in their banknote issue.”
