The BoI notes also felt cheaper to me than the English ones, so maybe they look counterfeit to the untrained eye. Maybe it's good as they function as a sort of local scrip and serve there purpose of recirculating money locally, etc., but they will be converted on the other side of the sea.

A few years back, I had some older English (pre-plastic?) notes. I had to take them to a bank to exchange for "proper" notes because stores wouldn't accept them.
