The Bank of England has published a shortlist of animal species that could feature as the central images on future £5, £10, £20 and £50 banknotes, according to reports. The shortlist includes 18 species, which the public can vote on. The initiative is part of the process for selecting designs for the banknotes, with the chosen animals expected to be reflected on specific denominations as part of the wider banknote imagery. The articles note that the voting opportunity is aimed at giving the public a role in deciding which species appear on the currency. The announced shortlist sets out the candidates currently under consideration, but it does not indicate which species have won or when final decisions will be confirmed. Overall, the reporting focuses on the release of the shortlist and the public vote as the next step in determining the animal designs for those banknote values.
