If I 'get' the trick correctly you don't have to use a 50. I was thinking that if I did get it I could start with a piece of paper, write £5 on it, and change it into a fiver >> tenner >> twenty >> 50p.
I checked out the Bank of England website for the note sizes:
- £5 - 135mm x 70mm
- £10 - 142mm x 75mm
- £20 - 149mm x 80mm
- £50 - 156mm x 85mm
So it's not really practical to try to trim the note. Seems to me the only way to do it would be to scan in the notes and scale them to the same size. I think (think) that if you don't print the back then it's not forgery but I don't know about that.
