Bank of Scotland issues new polymer 5-pound note
On 4 October 2016 the Bank of Scotland has introduced (pdf) a new polymer note of 5 pound. A little smaller than the existing 5-pound notes, the new notes will reuse the existing design, with on the front the portrait of Sir Walter Scott. A new security feature has been introduced in the form of a transparent window which changes color as the note is moved and tilted. The back of the note shows the Brig O'Doon.
