Banksy’s Fake £10 Note Will Become the First Work by the Artist to Enter the British Museum’s Collection

The British Museum has added its first piece by notorious British street artist Banksy to its collection, and the piece is a counterfeit—counterfeit currency, that is. In 2004, Banksy printed £1 million worth of fake £10 notes that replaced the visage of Queen Elizabeth II with that of late Princess Diana. Banksy then dropped the money on crowds at the Notting Hill Carnival and at the Reading Festival.

Banksy’s management company and authentication entity, Pest Control, has now donated one of these bills to the museum, according to the Art Newspaper. It is titled Di-faced Tenner, a play on the word “defaced.” Issued by the “Banksy of England,” the currency reads “trust no one” on the verso, which features Charles Darwin. The bill will join the British Museum’s department of coins and metals (rather than prints and drawings).

Although the British Museum doesn’t have any immediate plans to exhibit Di-Faced Tenner, it turns out that Banksy has already shown some of his other work there, albeit clandestinely. In 2005, he surreptitiously installed a fake cave painting, Peckham Rock, featuring a hunter pushing a supermarket cart, in the museum’s Roman Britain gallery.

Cool! That means that I have a real museum piece on the bathroom wall :-)

When you think all they had to do is frame one of their own wooden cards...

[Dive Jedi]

So what did they do with the Original Peckham Rock ?

That's not in the collection?

If this is true, and someone can grab me one or two I'd be most appreciative and could send you something back like a signed David shrigley book as a thank you

The work, called Peckham Rock, was loaned to the museum last year for an exhibition curated by Ian Hislop called I Object, which explored the history of dissent, but returned to the artist when it concluded. “I’m sure we’d love to have that in the collection but I don’t think that’s an offer that’s forthcoming,” Hockenhull said.

I mean knowing that this is the British museum and the fact that there was an endless supply Peckham Rock cards oh, I would expect there would be thousands of these on eBay over the next several months. If they're selling them for ten bucks, I'm happy to pay 20 or 30 bucks each for them.

Not being sold online and limited in supply

First I don't know if you're telling the truth that they're actually there, second what is limited Supply? I think I saw something one time where bansky claimed that he had $1000000 in these tenders

How limited Supply is that?

[puritog]

Thanks for the heads up, just made it before they closed

[skAcid]

Bullshit 😂

Take a step back from the keyboard and do some reading (of the OP’s posts) before you do any typing.

Nice try, mine from the British Museum (with receipt), yours a photo from The Art of Banksy Show in Berlin

Dear Wimpboy ! I just phoned to the British Museum , and they told me that their honorable institution has, unfortunately, not the right to sell fake money.
So, which one will be the next ?! 🤔.. oh I know ! Pic to follow !

Ps : in fact, as for the woh posters it was just to show us that you have multiple ( few ? ) asked Banksy items .. nicectry too :-)
I’m not jealous anyway.

[jp226]

Well, if this is true... can someone pick me up one?!
