Best Answer

The largest denomination banknote you will be able to pass in a shop or store in £50 sterling. However there are £1m and a £100m non circulating denomination. These are used as backing for banknotes issued by Scottish & Northern Irish banks when exceeding the value of their 1845 reserves.

Is 1 lb Royal Bank of Scotland bank note really worth a lb of silver?

No - UK currency is valued against gold. For example - the pledge on UK £5.00 banknotes reads 'I promise to pay the bearer on demand the sum of five pounds'. The 'pound' in the pledge is not a unit of weight but the monetary value of the note in gold. It simply means that you (theoretically) could take a £5.00 note into the Bank of England in London - and exchange it for an equivalent quantity of gold at the prevailing rate.

Can you use American money in Scotland?

Bank of England banknotes can be used in Scotland (but legally do not have to be accepted). Sometimes there can be resistenec to accepting large banknotes, notably the English £50 note. Scottish banknotes are issued by the Royal Bank of Scotland, the Bank of Scotland and the Clydesdale Bank. Again, they do not have to be accepted (but invariably are, although £50 and £100 notes are not always welcome). There is no separate Scottish or English coinage - just UK coins.
