Bank of Canada will begin issuing the currency made of polymers instead of traditional cotton paper starting with the $100 bill in November. New $50 and $20 bills are slated for release in 2012, with the $10 and $5 notes to come the following year.
According to CNN, security and verification features include raised ink in the numerals and the featured portrait, color-shifting images embedded in the large window, and a number hidden in the maple leaf window. The new bills will be the same size and colors as their paper counterparts, but thinner and lighter.
