I really like the historical content. Talking not only about how it has changed but there was significance of the people who were on the notes. It adds a little understanding of why these people are important.
4:52 ¥32,000 is equal to AUD $317, so not a small amount of money. Many Australians do not bother with cash at all as electronic NFC (EMV) machines at the shops are ubiquitous. Consequently, when Australian tourists in Japan are compelled to pay with cash at the smaller shops they will be taken quite aback as this everyday retail practice is reminiscent of 2010 life, or even earlier.
@@foundinjapan Like Japan, the United States is not as technologically advanced as many outsiders think. There is a good segment of the American population who are economically disadvantaged and are entirely dependent on cash, as their local communities are not served by banks. But, in Australia, every citizen has a bank account as life is impossible without one. Moreover, unlike a good number of US jurisdictions, which include New York, Australian business are totally within their rights to refuse cash.
was the one on the new 10,000 yen samurai also during his early years . There is a 1866 photo as samurai . Thank you for showing the new Japanese Yen . Also I have seen the old 1 yen banknotes they where used just before introduced as a coin 1955 the one yen banknote was used 1946-1958 . one yen banknote is very interesting it has a rooster on the front and a person who lived during the samurai time period . there smaller then the current Japanese banknotes .
I like the new 1,000 one a lot. I agree that I don't like the fonts on any of the new ones though, but the great wave on the back is really cool. I wonder what made they change their bank notes...
I think they change them every 20 or 30 years. I have heard counterfeiting is one reason but maybe also just to help get people to change out money so they can know how much is out there.
The new bills are great looking and have interesting, eminent people on them. It's great to see women on money. It's been a real struggle trying to get Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill, and i think it may never happen. I still have a ¥2000 note that was issued in commemoration of the last time Japan hosted the G8. The US will never have interesting money...
They will not expire just stop being made. In my video ruclips.net/video/6iRuyDi9j4c/видео.html I talked a little about the life cycle of the money. Basicaly every couple years the bills old bills are destroyed and new ones printed depending on the bill. From now only they will reduce and stop printing the old notes. 20 years ago there was a 2000 yen note for example. It is still usable but mainly only collected and used in Okinawa
There are no new 2000 yen notes. I actually went to 3 banks and requested them and they did not have any at the time. I tried to find someone that might have one and couldnt sorry.
@@foundinjapanForeign banks for some reason are stacked with 2000¥ bills. I exchanged euros for yen here in Italy and they gave me 20 2000¥ bills, and I found out that many stores don’t even accept them. My conspiracy theory is that japanese banks send 2000¥ bills to foreign banks because they’re very hard to use and foreign banks don’t know it and just accept them
Ha! There is no comparison whatsoever with Australian polymer notes which have been in circulation since 1988. Polymer notes are next to impossible to forge and last longer. 🦘🇦🇺
japan's currency is the loser of all loser. losing money for every currency printed while supporting a country that might want to do harm to them. WAY TO GO, JAPAn. 2 to 1 incoming!
Which do you prefer? The old or new banknotes?
I liked the old money but really like the look and feel of the new ones. So I am team new.
Loving the new style, the art on the back is absolutely gorgeous.
The new money for sure!
New is best as it incorporates modern concepts, technology and practices. It is just like phones or cars.
The old ones look good but daaaam the new ones are gorgeous
yeah. They look good in a wallet too. Really easy to tell the difference in numbers I feel.

Thank you as always for watching. I really wanted to show some respect to those that were leaving

I am currently in the US right now and feels weird to use my card everywhere.

This had me cracking me up
Thanks
Thank You for the video. I wonder how do they look under black light
@@MrX-ot4cv the Japanese government said they Flores. The pictures I saw weee greens and purples.
i also heard the ramen vending machiens dont take the new bills
I need to make a short about it lol
I Feel Like Both Are Fine The Old Will still exist
Yeah for now. As they make it through circulation the older ones will phase out.
@@foundinjapan so it will be like the 1984 edition i will try to go to japan for the old and new bills
🗝️'🗽🇯🇵
Thanks for dropping in
Super interesting, definitely odd how they used two different fonts for "1" between the new 1000 and 10000 note.
Yeah. Seems it is to help with visually impaired and to keep from being counter fitted.
Perhaps when counting bills quickly, It would help denote the 1000 vs 10000 quicker.

Maybe one day the US money will have have something new. But our money is used as the symbol of money in media so we have that.
When do the old ones expire?

How come you didn't grab the 2000 yen notes?

@@foundinjapan NO PROBLEM I'm just glad to know thanks for the vid.

Oh really? That is awesome
@@foundinjapan you can guess from my surname :)
By the way, how are you?
I am good. Thank you for joining and commenting. How are you?
@@foundinjapan I’m pretty good also:)
So, apparently, it was for counterfeiting measures.
Yeah good to update

Do you mean ¥ 200 to $1? I hope it doesn’t come to that. The yen remaining week and the Dollar inflating does make things rough
