Match the pictures with the descriptions of the banknotes. Okay, maybe it's not that beautiful, but the asymmetrical design is interesting. These islands, about halfway between Iceland and Norway, have a bleak windswept beauty, and the people have great character. You have to love a place that puts a crab on its money. Sir Edmund Hillary who at 33 was the first man on the top of Mt Everest is portrayed with weather-crinkled eyes and windswept hair. His original job was, surprisingly, a beekeeper. The new improved version of this note became the 'The Banknote of the Year' in 2015. This note received a prestigious award 'The Banknote of the Year' in 2013. It has nice warm yellow and orange colours and it shows modern Kazakh Eli monument on one side and petrographic drawings of warriors on the other. Notes from this country were awarded three times in a row. The verse on this banknote comes from a short story and reads: "The winters of my childhood were long, long seasons. We lived in three places - the school, the church and the skating rink - but our real life was on the skating rink." These islands are still in the middle of nowhere, halfway between New Zealand and Hawaii without the crowds of tourists to spoil the place. Maybe that is why the woman is so calm and happy even when she is riding a giant shark. Come to think of it even the shark looks happy. The International Bank Note Society awards the 'The Banknote of the Year'. This note won it in 2010. It was chosen for its attractiveness and interesting security features. The designers wanted to show the fauna, flora, and sights of the country. It shows a bluebird, Dockyard Tower and Statue of Neptune. Another 'Banknote of the Year' winner. This banknote is bigger than usual and shows Sir Walter Scott, a famous writer on top and an impressive machine on the other. The wheel is a lift for boats that flows on canals in the country. The writing on this side is minimal to create even more impressive effect. It is only natural that a country with almost 101,000 km long coastline will choose the sea as a theme for its new banknotes. The new notes will be issued in 2017 and perhaps this innovative design will find its way into the wallets of these sea-loving people.
