The Government of St. Helena has unveiled their new polymer banknotes with the portrait of King Charles III.

These will be released to circulation very soon.

The denominations are 5 (SHP5.3), 10 (SHP10.3) and 20 pounds (SHP20.3.)

Older paper notes and Bank of England polymer notes remain in use as legal tender.
