At first I wasn't sure weather I wanted to create a currency just for Britian or a currency that the USA and Britain could share. Here are some of my initial sketches.
I want my money to be timeless, something that can not age. So I am not going to include a person or a landmark just something that will always be known or popular in the future and will not need to keep being changed.
I am creating a banknote for Britain because when asking people who is on our bank notes nobody really knew anyone except for Queen Elizabeth.
My idea is to create money that is patriotic. Back in WW2 Britian were very patriotic, proud of their country and what it had achieved. Since then patriotism in Britian reduces with each generation. In 2012 when we hosted the olympics pride did rise but it soon dropped back down again. I want my money a sign that we are proud to be British as well as being ageless.
Symbols that relates to Britian
- English Rose
- Tea and scones
- British Bulldog
- Lion
- Football
- Bad weather
- Fish and Chips
I need to think about how to can make it so that the money can not be forged.
I also need to think about how I can create my money and how it could be mass produced.
