Answer 2

Ireland has two currencies in use The pound sterling is used in Northern Ireland with individual notes available from all the major banks acceptable. This can be confusing for the visitor as not only will you find English notes in circulation but also but also Sterling Bank of Ireland, Ulster Bank, Northern Bank and Scottish Bank notes along with occasional Bank of Isle of Man all of which are accepted in general exchange. This can mean up to half a dozen different notes of the same denomination.

Answer 3

British pounds (£ Sterling). Cheques and bank cards clear through London. The coins are the same as in England & Wales and Scotland and the Channel Islands. But the banknotes are distinctive, issued by Northern Irish banks and exchangeable at par with Bank of England notes, which also circulate freely. As to Sterling travellers cheques.

In 2004 the IRA staged a bank robbery

The bank demonetized (withdrew) the £20 note, making most of what was stolen worthless.
