The Bank of England has yet to advise a date for the Sir John Houblon Fifty Pound note to be withdrawn.

Some banks, building societies, and Post Offices will still accept the most recent of the notes withdrawn from circulation for deposit to customer accounts or exchange for current series notes however, this is at the discretion of the business concerned.

The Bank of England will always accept old notes for face value in current notes.

This means that the Ten and Twenty Pound notes will last longer in circulation and become relatively cheaper to produce and maintain in circulation due to a reduced demand for them.
