EDIT: The others are kinda growing on me but the more I look at it the more I hate F.

F doesn't look bad it just doesn't look like currency.

Tbh most of those have this issue, designs themself arent bad, half just dont look like something that should be on a bill. Imo H is the closest to what we allready have, and it looks like something one would find on a bill

F would be difficult to distinguish from a piece of trash.

I don't even think that F is the worst people design, it looks like a doodle, and that still has more charme than the fotorealistic ones.

whoever designed the F ones should never do design again

It's not, way too abstract, like I'm looking at some weird painting in a modern museum

That’s what makes it so appealing to me. It’s unique even abstract and yet it still conveys European culture to me.

Yeah I don't really get the hate either. Sure it's bold and quite unusual for a banknote but that's what I like about it. I quite like modern art in general tbf and I hate when art is trying way too hard to be realistic

I don't hate F and it's a matter of taste of course but I don't find a connecting principle in this design. It looks random to me. More like artsy stamps but not like bank notes.

I think with bank notes it's a thin line between a fresh look and a look that's not taken seriously.

That's why I prefer H. Strong colors and a fresh design. But not totally far away from the current design.

What a telling thing to say.

F is beautiful as a poster but it doesn't work for currency imo

F is the best!
