The BBC reports.
It is noted that the new Bank of England bills will gradually replace damaged ones or "will be issued when demand increases". King Charles III is the second monarch to be depicted on banknotes. The first was Queen Elizabeth II in 1960.
The £5, £10, £20 and £50 bills featuring the Queen's portrait can still be used.
The portrait of the King used for the bills was taken in 2013.
- On April 9, representatives from the Bank of England presented King Charles III with the first banknotes featuring his image.
