    Yeah in the UK old currency is fazed out in less than a year. £1 coins changed in 2016 and it only took a few months till the old design was invalid

        There’s an overlap where both are valid for a few months and you can trade them in at post offices and banks but after that period is up it’s just tough luck I guess

          Edit: Do you guys like the government having this level of control over your money? Do you want for society to become completely reliant on the banking system?
