This is a new £20 Danske Bank polymer banknote issued on 20.07.2020. This new £20 polymer note retains the same designs of the previous paper note issued. On the front, it features the portrait of Harry Ferguson (b.1884-1960) and a Ferguson tractor. Harry Ferguson was a mechanic and a famous inventor, who is well known for his role in the development of agricultural tractors. On the back, it depicts the fascia of City Hall, Belfast.

This note is printed with the date of 6th July 2019.

This is the fourth polymer banknote issued since 1999. The first polymer was the £5 and was released on 08.10.1999 under the bank's previous name of Northern Bank and then on 01.01.2000 released another one with the same design but with a special prefix of MM to celebrate the millennium year.
