A banknote is a kind of currency, issued as legal tender. With coins, banknotes make up the cash forms of all modern money systems. Coins are used for lower valued units, notes for the higher values.
The first recorded use of banknotes was in the 7th century in China, however in Europe the first banknotes were issued by Stockholms Banco (a predecessor of the Bank of Sweden, Sveriges Riksbank) in 1660, although the bank ran out of coins to redeem its notes in 1664 and ceased operating in that year. It was 1694 when the Bank of England issued the first permanently circulating banknotes. The use of fixed denominations and printed banknotes came in use in the 18th century.
Most banknotes are made of heavy paper, sometimes made with linen, cotton, or other textile fibres. Some countries including Mexico and Australia produce banknotes made from plastic, in order to incorporate a small transparent window a few mm in size as a security feature that can't be reproduced by common counterfeiting techniques.

Introduction
Banknotes were issued because carrying around a lot of precious metal was cumbersome. Banknotes were originally a claim to an amount of precious metal stored in a vault somewhere. In this way the stored value (usually in gold or silver coins) backing the banknote could transfer ownership in exchange for goods or services. So long as each circulating banknote was backed by the appropriate amount of metal the storage and representation of the stored metal constituted the 100% reserve banking system, and the currency system is one based on specie money, which takes the forms of commodity money or representative money because it is backed by something of intrinsic value.Today banknotes are not backed by any intrinsic value. Circulating banknotes are not backed by any reserve of value, but only on the faith that the paper will be honored when it is offered to pay for goods or services. A £100 note is no harder to produce than a £1 note, so the £100 note does not represent any greater intrinsic value than the £1 note. This system of currency with no intrinsic value is known as fiat money.
Issuing Banks
Pound sterling banknotes are issued by
Sterling banknotes are also issued by
- the Bank of England accepted throughout the UK;
- the Bank of Scotland (generally accepted throughout the UK);
- the Royal Bank of Scotland (generally accepted throughout the UK);

- the Bank of Ireland, First Trust Bank, Northern Bank and Ulster Bank (rarely seen outside Northern Ireland).
- the Government of the Isle of Man and
- the States of Jersey and
- the States of Guernsey, but their notes are not generally accepted off their own islands (although Guernsey notes can sometimes be found in Jersey and vice versa).
Bank of England Notes
The Bank of England has a legal monopoly on the issue of Sterling banknotes in England and Wales.As of November, 2003 the Bank of England banknotes in circulation are:

The Monarch on Bank Notes
In the UK, particularly in England, in recent years there have been comments relating to the option of adopting the Euro along the lines of: we don't want to lose the Queen on our banknotes. This overlooks the fact that Queen Elizabeth II was the first UK monarch to have their face on UK banknotes. Prior to the issue of its Series C banknotes in 1960, Bank of England banknotes did not depict the UK monarch. Even today, notes issued by the other note issuing banks do not depict the monarch.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
In music, the abstract concept of note refers both to a unit of fixed pitch which has been given a name, and also to the graphic representation of that pitch in a notation system. A note can also be a specific instance of either, so one can speak of "the second note of Happy Birthday" for example. The general and specific meanings are freely mixed by musicians, although they can be initially confusing: "the first two notes of Happy Birthday are the same note".
In English, the notes are given 7 letter names: A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. Each letter name is assigned to a specific pitch regardless of the octave in which the pitch resides. Notes are used together as a scales or tone row. However, because there are actually 12 notes needed by diatonic music, the 7 letter names can also be given a modifier.
The two main modifiers are sharps and flats which respectively raise or lower the pitch of a note by a semitone. These are used to create the additional five notes necessary to complete the chromatic scale. The sharp symbol is ♯, the flat symbol is ♭.
In music notation, a note is sharpened or flattened (raised or lowered) by placing a sharp symbol or flat symbol directly in front of the note. When using letters, the symbol follows the letter, as in A♯ for the note A sharp.
Modifiers can be set for the duration of a piece at the front of the staff immediately after the clef and before the time signature, in which case they form the key signature: for example, a sharp symbol on the F line indicates that every F in the staff is to be understood as an F♯. Modifiers which occur during the piece and alter a specific note are called accidentals.
Also common are double flats and double sharps, which alter the pitch of the note by a whole step, rather than a half step. There is also a natural accidental in notation, which undoes the change made by a previous accidental or the key signature itself.
When notes are written out in a score, each note is assigned a specific vertical position on either a line or in a space on the staff. Each line or space is assigned a note name, these names are memorized by the musician and allows him or her to know at a glance the proper pitch to play on his or her instrument for each note-head marked on the page.
The staff above above shows the notes C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C and then in reverse order. There are no sharps or flats at the beginning of the staff, indicating that this is the key of C.
History of note names
Music notation systems have used letters of the alphabet for centuries. The 6th century philosopher Boethius is known to have used the first fifteen letters of the alphabet to signify the notes of the two-octave range that was in use at the time; it is not known whether this was his devising or common usage at the time; nonetheless this is called Boethian Notation.Following this, the system of repeating letters A-G in each octave was introduced, these being written as minuscules for the second octave and double minuscules for the third. When the compass of used notes was extended down by one note, to a G, it was given the Greek G (Γ), gamma. (It is from this that the French word for scale, gamme is derived, and the English word gamut.)
The remaining five notes of the chromatic scale (the black keys on a piano keyboard) were added gradually; the first being B which was flattened in certain modess to avoid the dissonant augmented fourth interval. This change was not always shown in notation, but when written, B♭ was written as a latin, round "b", and B♮ a Gothic b. These evolved into the modern flat and natural symbols respectively. The sharp symbol arose from a barred b, called the "cancelled b".
In parts of Europe, including Germany, the natural symbol transformed into the letter H: in German music notation, H is B♮ and B is B♭.

Lexicography | Devil's Dictionary | ABRACADABRA. By Abracadabra we signify An infinite number of things. 'Tis the answer to What? and How? and Why? And Whence? and Whither? -- a word whereby The Truth (with the comfort it brings) Is open to all who grope in night, Crying for Wisdom's holy light. Whether the word is a verb or a noun Is knowledge beyond my reach. I only know that 'tis handed down. From sage to sage, From age to age -- An immortal part of speech! Of an ancient man the tale is told That he lived to be ten centuries old, In a cave on a mountain side. (True, he finally died.) The fame of his wisdom filled the land, For his head was bald, and you'll understand His beard was long and white And his eyes uncommonly bright. Philosophers gathered from far and near To sit at his feat and hear and hear, Though he never was heard To utter a word But "Abracadabra, abracadab, Abracada, abracad, Abraca, abrac, abra, ab!" 'Twas all he had, 'Twas all they wanted to hear, and each Made copious notes of the mystical speech, Which they published next -- A trickle of text In the meadow of commentary. Mighty big books were these, In a number, as leaves of trees; In learning, remarkably -- very! He's dead, As I said, And the books of the sages have perished, But his wisdom is sacredly cherished. In Abracadabra it solemnly rings, Like an ancient bell that forever swings. O, I love to hear That word make clear Humanity's General Sense of Things. Jamrach Holobom |
