King Charles III Sterling pound Banknotes

King Charles III Sterling pound Banknotes

The date is already set on June 5th the new British pound banknotes featuring King Charles III will be released. That may see like a regular even but with the release many questions come to people mind. We are going to try to answer them for you. 

What will happen to the actual polymer Banknotes featuring Queen Elizabeth?

Don’t worry, all the actual polymer notes featuring King Elizabeth will remain legal tender, you will have no problem to pay with them or exchange them at any business. So, in case you would like to exchange British pounds into euros it wont matter if your pounds are the old version or the new one, both will have the same value. 

Why and how will both versions coexist?

This happened before many times in history and with many currencies but maybe this case is different. Usually, one note replaces the old one but, on this case, let us start telling you that as right now, the Bank of England will only issue the new version featuring King Charles III to replace damaged or really old notes. So is not like they are replacing every note they have, just those that need to be reprinted.

Also, both currencies are legal tender so they will coexist until the old notes go out of circulation, for that even is not even a date set, so won’t be a problem for a while.

Do they have the same value?

Of course, both polymer notes have the same value to pay or to be exchanged. For many months the UK is being preparing for this event. Most ATM machines already have new updates to be able to handle both versions. Companies have been updating their systems in order to detect and accept this new version on automatic machines as could be vending machines. Everything is set for this release. 

What about exchanging British pounds in Spain?

As you already know, and this post is another proof, at Eurochange we are up with the times and aware of all currents event involving currencies. This means that all our offices are informed of the latest currency news. All your British pounds will be welcomed if you want to exchange pounds to euro, no matter if they are featuring Queen Elizabeth or King Charles III.

And one more thing… At Eurochange we even exchange the old sterling pound paper notes. So don’t hesitate to come visit us at any of our many locations or contact us thru our customer service.

Happy New Years

Happy New Years

Is not a typo, we really meant to say Happy New Years and we will show you why in the next lines. We are so used to celebrate New Years on January 1st, but some of you from other parts of the world will disagree with us about that date.

There are more than 20 different New Years around the globe, and we decided to take a look at some of those new years’ celebrations. Let’s go.

Gregorian Calendar

The most known new year, as we said in the intro, is the one that falls into January 1st. Is the one that corresponds to the Gregorian Calendar and is called like that because it was the pope Gregory XIII who promote that initiative on 1582 in Europe. As many other traditions, the calendar was exported from Europe to the rest of the world and that is why many countries use that calendar and celebrate new years on January 1st.

Chinese New Year

Probably the most famous new years after the one we just talked about. One curiosity about this celebration is that doesn’t fall on the same day every year. The Chinese New Year is celebrated during the first new moon after the winter solstice, so usually falls in January or February. Some other curiosities are that lasts more than a week and each year is dedicated to one of the 12 animals from the Chinese zodiac.

Islamic New Year

Different to the Gregorian calendar, the Islamic calendar only 354 days so, as the Chinese New Year, the Islamic New Year falls under a different day each year if we look at it from the Gregorian calendar. The celebrations start on the sunset the before the first day of the Islamic year but is not the kind of celebration we are used to. The Muharram, as it´s called, is more an introspect celebration with family, prays and meditation.  

Jewish New Year

If we look at the dates from an occidental calendar point of view, this is another new year that is not fixed on the calendar. The Jewish New Year is based on the phases of the moon, and usually falls in autumn during the months of September or October according to the occidental calendar. Kinda similar to the Islamic New Year, starts on the eve of the new year, followed by the Yom Kippur (Day of Reconciliation). On the night of the Rosh Hashaná, that is how is called, people eat sweet fruits to start a new year with a sweet taste. 

Happy New Year to all

From Eurochange we would like to wish you a happy new year to all of you no matter where you from. Each year we have the pleasure to have clients from all over the world and for every culture out there, that is why we will love for you all to have an amazing 2024 no matter when starts. And if you decided to travel around the world to experience all the new year´s celebrations out there, make sure you visit our website when you will be able to buy or reserve the currencies that you would need for those destinations. 

December´s long weekend

0 Comments


December´s long Holliday Weekend

This week we are having one of the most expected days for everyone in Spain, we are talking about the Holliday weekend that goes from December 6th until December 10th , which is called December´s long weekend. This is what we call in bridge. But why is it called a bridge? And which holidays include? What to do during these days? Well let’s explain all this.

Why is a bridge?

In Spain we call a bridge to what is known in English as a long weekend. That usually means that a holiday falls into a Monday or a Friday. But in Spain is also called when a holiday falls into Tuesday or Thursday, since many people take the day off in the middle to enjoy a much longer weekend. That is where the term Bridge comes from, because is like we build a bridge between the 2 holidays taking that extra day off.

Which days are actually a holiday in this December´s long weekend?

In this case the 2 holidays are the 6th and the 8th of December. This year those 2 holidays are on a Wednesday and a Friday, which allowed many people to take Thursday off and enjoy a 5 days weekend.

 

December 6th is the day of the Spanish Constitution. In Spain we celebrate the constitution, which is the document where all Spanish rights and obligations are written.  On December 6th, 1978, the Spanish citizens voted in favor of this document, and that is why is celebrated on this date.

December 8th is the day of the Immaculate Concepcion. This is a religious holiday that celebrates the birth of the Virgin Mary, mother of Christ. An many holidays, this one has its origins on the Christian religion.

Those 2 holidays are considered unmovable, which means that doesn’t matter on which day of the week they fall, that’s the day the holiday will take place.

What to do in Spain during this long weekend?

Well, there isn’t enough entries in this blog to show you how much Spain has to offer during this weekend. But what I can tell you is what Spanish families do. Is it common in Spain to spend these holidays decorating the houses for Christmas. Also, most cities already have the Christmas decorations up. There are plenty Christmas markets in a lot of Spanish cities which are full of Christmas food, decorations and other things celebrating the magic of Christmas.

And what Eurochange has to do with all of this?

Long weekends are always a perfect excuse to travel. Many Spanish people used this one to travel all over the world and many of them used Eurochange to exchange their euros into foreign currencies. At the same time, many people for overseas know of the existence of this long weekend in Spain (as most of you know) and they feel like a perfect opportunity to visit our county. For those, Eurochange gives them the chance to exchange dollars or exchange pound or exchange any foreign currency into euros at any of our offices around Spain. So, if you are in Spain enjoying this long weekend or you return from it, make sure you come to Eurochange for all your currencies ‘needs.

Halloween: origins and traditions

A view into halloween´s origins and traditions

Its Spooky time, and you all know what it means: Halloween. Even this is not a Spanish tradition there are some connections with Spain on the origins of this celebration, so let’s see where Halloween comes from and those connections.

 

Origins 

In case you don’t already know, Halloween comes from a pagan celebration, the Celtic festival of Samhain that celebrated the harvest at the end of the summer. And the date, November 1st comes from the eight century when pope Gregory III designated this day as the day to honor the saints. And you may ask you: What saints have to do with Halloween? Well, November 1st is All Saints Day, a tradition celebrated in many countries to honor those who departed. And here comes the amazing part: the word Halloween comes from “All Hallows Eve” which literally means the day before All Saints’ Day. One of them is a Christian tradition, the other one is pagan.

 

Tradition

Since both traditions have different origins, they also have different celebrations. While Halloween is festive, All Saints´ Day has more of a mourning vibe attach to it. In Spain, during All Saints´ Day the tradition its to visit your departed loved ones at the cemetery, bring them flowers and “spend” some time with them. But in Spain we also embraced the Halloween celebrations the night before, so each year more and more people celebrate it doing Halloween things that we will see next and where they come from.

 

The Pumpkin Carving

This tradition was originated in Ireland and comes from the myth of man call Stingy Jack (that’s why the carved pumpkins are called Jack-o´-Lanterns). Initially there were no pumpkins craved, they used turnips, that’s right turnips. The myth stays that Jack trapped the Devil and negotiated a deal to never go to hell. When Jack died, his soul was not wanted on Heaven neither, so he had to wander around earth as a gosht for eternity. And why a turnip? Well, the Devil gave jack a lighted turnip to light his way, and that’s where the tradition comes. With time people started to make scary faces on those turnips to scare evil, and now its just for fun.

 

Scary Costumes 

 

This tradition comes back to the Celts, and the idea that, during the celebration of this festival the goshts that were around earth would come attracted by the celebrations. So basically, they were using camouflage. They dressed as goshts in order not to be identified by the real goshts and be able to enjoy the celebrations without being punished. Pretty clever if I may say. Nowadays we all know is not about how much you look like a gosht, is more about how good we can look dressing up as something scary.

 

Trick or treat

 

There are different theories about the origins of this tradition, but we are not going to bored you all with a long long text about it. We are just going to see them quickly.
1-    The Celts used to leave food and other goods to the gosht at their doorways, so with time people started dressing up as goshts to get that food.
2-    The Scottish during the Middle Ages used to collect food in exchange for prays during All Souls Day. The tradition dropped the religious part and stick to the going door to door part.
3-    Comes from a German-American tradition: belsnickeling. During this Christmas tradition kids dress up and go to their neighbors for them to try to guess what they are dressed like. And the price is candy.

New currency: The Algerian Dinar

We have added a new currency to our list, the Algerian Dinar.

In Eurochange we are introducing new currencies constantly, today we want to present the one we added to our list a few weeks ago, it is the DZD, the Algerian dinar. As you well know, in EUROCHANGE you can change from DZD to Euro or from Euro to DZD.

 

The dinar (Arabic: دينار جزائري dinar jaza'iri, or دينار dinar; french dinar algérien) is the official currency of Algeria since April 1, 1964, when it replaced the Algerian franc. Its ISO 4217 code is DZD and its abbreviation is DA. Its name derives from the Roman denarius. The coin is divided into 100 cents. Both their import and export are totally prohibited. It is a non-convertible currency, this means that it is not listed on the stock exchange and the price depends on the Algerian monetary authorities who are the ones who set its equivalent against the other currencies.

  • COINS

At the time of its creation, a series of coins of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cents, and a dinar, were put into circulation, being reflected in both Arabic and French. Due to the economic problems of the country, the cents were discarded although the prices are still reflected. And the 1 and 2 dinar coins almost stopped being used. The coins that circulate most frequently in Algeria are those of 5 dinars or higher. In August 2012, a new 200 dinar bimetallic coin was put into circulation in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of independence.

  • BANK NOTES

The Central Bank of Algeria (the Banque d'Algérie), is in charge of issuing the banknotes and coins of this North African country.The first series of Algerian dinar banknotes was issued in 1964 in denominations of 5, 10, 50 and 100 dinars. A second series appeared in 1970, made up of notes of 5, 10, 50, 100 and 500 dinar notes, in 1992 the fourth series came to light where the 1000 dinar notes were introduced and with the fifth and last series in circulation launched in 2000 dinar banknotes appeared in 2011.The texts on the obverses of the banknotes are written in Arabic, and those on the reverses in French, so that they differ from the old Algerian franc. The denominations of Algerian dinar banknotes in the current 1970 series are: 5, 10, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000 and 2000 Algerian dinars.

 

If you are going to travel to Algeria or on the contrary you have left over dinars from a trip, look no further. Eurochange is your exchange house. Come to any office in our network, make a reservation through our website by clicking on EUROCHANGE or call us at the Customer Service Center 615403877 and we will solve your doubts.
