The Falkland Islands Pound (FKP) is the official currency of the Falkland Islands, issued by the Falkland Islands Government.
Modern FKP banknotes are closely aligned in value with the British Pound Sterling, which they are pegged to at a fixed 1:1 rate.
The current series features beautifully detailed designs celebrating the islands’ wildlife, maritime heritage, and royal symbolism.
Recent issues incorporate updated security features, crisp engraving, and vibrant colour palettes, while retaining the distinctive local themes that make Falkland Islands notes instantly recognisable.
These modern banknotes remain the primary legal tender across the Falklands and are widely collected due to their limited circulation and unique regional identity.
Exchanging your FKP notes is simple and secure.

Before the introduction of the current enhanced‑security series, the Falkland Islands issued several earlier generations of Pound banknotes.
These older notes often feature traditional paper designs, earlier portraits of Queen Elizabeth II, and classic layouts reflecting the islands’ British heritage and remote South Atlantic character.
Many of these withdrawn notes circulated from the mid‑20th century through the early 2000s before being replaced by updated designs.
Although no longer used in everyday transactions, outdated Falkland Islands Pound notes remain highly collectible due to their low print volumes, distinctive artwork, and strong connection to the islands’ history.
At Thecurrencycounter.co.uk, we accept a wide range of outdated Falkland Islands Pound notes, including early paper issues, redesigned series, and denominations no longer seen in circulation.
