rooster59 Posted December 8, 2018 Posted December 8, 2018 Thailand’s new 1,000-baht banknote wins international award Photo from: “Bank of Thailand” Facebook fan page The first issue of 1,000 baht banknotes of the reign of His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn has won The Best New Banknote Award at the High Security Printing Asia 2018 international conference held in Hanoi, Vietnam. The banknote was cited for its unique printing technology using the optically variable magnetic ink (OVMI), the first of its kind for Thai banknotes which creates three-dimensional moving patterns and switching colours when observing from different angles. It was named the Best New Banknote at the three-day High Security Printing Asia 2018 forum in Hanoi that ended on Wednesday, according to the Bank of Thailand’s announcement on Friday.

happy chappie Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 I suppose they do need the latest security and high technology with the 1,000b note as it's worth so much.itll soon be worth more than the uk's £50 note.

I am not sure but Thai banknotes are produced by either The Printing Works of the Bank of Thailand OR The China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation.

You just have to change your viewing angle, (and then it can be same colour as any of the others perhaps..)
HerbalEd Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 Looks like the award preferred the new notes' form over function. Have you noticed that all the new bank notes do not have their value (i.e., 20, 50, 100, 500 & 1,000) in the customary upper-right corner of either side? This makes it cumbersome to read a note's value when it's in a wallet, or folded for a pocket. 1
jerojero Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 There are conferences for this kind of shiiiiiit? Sheesh!
sirineou Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 A nice looking note , as far as notes go! Though not earth shaking news, a positive for Thailand. Well done!! The fact that no one has a good thing to say about such,positive, innocuous event says more about them than for Thailand.

You need to keep them upside down in your wallet, but that's probably a LM offense in this country..?
Janner1 Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 Anyone know if there is a time limit to use the old 1000baht notes before they become defunct?
