What is the value of a Bank of England Twenty Pound note Richard Faraday with no print of the Queen on the other side?
If your Twenty Pound note has Richard Faraday on it, it is a fake. The Bank of England Series E Twenty Pound note with Michael Faraday was first issued in 1991 and last issued in 1994 and ceased to be legal tender in 2001. The Bank of England Series E revised Twenty Pound note with Michael Faraday was first issued in 1993 and last issued in 2000 and ceased to be legal tender in 2001. Any banknote with a "genuine" printing flaw would have some value, above the usual, as a collectible banknote. Although they should never have made it into circulation, genuinely flawed banknotes are not necessarily known about or documented until somebody turns up with one, since they are an "accident" of the printing process, and have escaped detection during quality control at the printers therefore, a valuation cannot be anticipated. A reputable coin dealer should be able to identify and confirm the note as genuine and make a valuation.
