NEW Japanese Money in 2024 First Look!
A new 1000, 5000, and 10000 Yen Bank note was just release on July 3rd 2024 in Japan. I was able to get some and compare them to the previous Japanese bank notes.

Which do you prefer? The old or new banknotes?

New is best as it incorporates modern concepts, technology and practices. It is just like phones or cars.
I really like the historical content.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.

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

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?

They will not expire just stop being made. In my video kzread.info/dash/bejne/aJ2G19t9mZzQZMY.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
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 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.
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.
i also heard the ramen vending machiens dont take the new bills

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!

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
So, apparently, it was for counterfeiting measures.

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. 🦘🇦🇺
