4 May 2010 a new 100-krone banknote is issued. The new series makes it even more difficult to counterfeit or copy genuine banknotes.
The banknotes have been designed by the artist Karin Birgitte Lund and have Danish bridges and prehistoric finds as their motifs. All Danish banknotes issued since the substitution of money in 1945 can be exchanged at face value at Danmarks Nationalbank.
The first low numbers
The banknotes will have sequence no. A009xx, with A0 indicating that they are from the first edition. The sequence number is in the lower right-hand corner. The individual serial numbers of the banknotes are stated on the left-hand side just below the denomination. It should be noted that the serial number is six digits followed by a letter. While several banknotes will have the same combination of digits, the end letter will vary, making the serial number unique.
The serial numbers will indicate that the banknotes are from the first batch. It will not be possible to order specific numbers. The banknotes are distributed as orders are received. The banknotes are supplied in acid-free plastic pockets.
Last edition of old 100-krone banknote
In addition, 100-krone banknotes of the last edition of the current series can be ordered. These banknotes have sequence number D308xx.
Both new and old banknotes will be sold at face value. To cover the considerable administration involved a handling fee of DKK 200 including VAT will be charged per order - in the same way as for sales of Faroese banknotes. Orders are limited to a maximum of 10 banknotes, but may contain a combination of banknotes from the old and the new series.
