Forum: Excerpts from readers’ letters

I recently exchanged currency notes at a bank for the Chinese New Year, and as I needed more than the limit allowed, I agreed to fit notes, which are notes deemed clean and suitable for recirculation, including for festive gifting, by the Monetary Authority of Singapore. At least two of the $50 notes looked old and faded. I asked the bank teller how they were considered fit and was told the notes were issued by MAS.
