New 10,000 yen note

[David]

According to the Bank of Japan (Japanese) Twitter account (@bank_of_japan_j), it looks like they'll be releasing a new 10,000 yen note. Wonder when the ATMs will start spitting these out...

I wonder how these will work at the register where you just put your money in the slot?

I'm assuming they'll work everywhere just fine. Japanese bills seem to be by size, i.e., the 1000 yen note is shorter than the 5000, etc.

Yep. I gotta save my allowance money to see a crisp one of my own, but maybe the bank will let me borrow one when they're in stock for a picture.
