In the process of being withdrawn status

Hi

I think this can be applicable in situations where there is a transition period such as when both two significantly different types circulate alongside for certain periods of time (before they are demonetised). Secondly when the issuing bank will actively sort through coins and banknote and replace it with a new coin or banknote and Finally when there isn't a formal demonetisation status on older currencies.

• For example the Bank of Mexico is actively withdrawing the pre 2009 Centavo coins and any banknotes from 1992- mid 2000s even though they are legal tender and be spent easily but when they are deposited in the bank it is possible they are segregated from newer types and sent to be destroyed.
• Another example can be places where obsolete coin denominations (Canada Cent and Australian 1 and 2 cent coins, or AUS 1 and 2 Dollar banknotes) and previous series coins are still usable but are actively withdrawn by the issuer.
• Coin replacement programs can come under this such as programs in place in the UK and Canada where they actively remove Precious and higher quality base metal coins from circulation.

Situations like these will become clearer when we finally distinguish between "withdrawn from circulation" and “demonetized”. However, it would be nice to highlight pieces in the process of being withdrawn so that collectors can be aware they may be more difficult to get in the future.

A good idea which would require someone to be actively managing the entries in question, specifically to change the status to ‘withdrawn’ from ‘in the process of’ at the appropriate time.

I think “outmoded” is the right word here, for the pre 2009 Mexican notes for example

We could put in the date of withdrawal or demonetization once it's set, then have the site change what is displayed when that date passes.

I do agree because this does correlate well with the “withdrawn/demonetised/exchangeable” topics members mentioned in recently.

I pretty sure Xavier can program Numista Robot in his basement to check the dates every once in a while and to change it when the date passes. But as ceh2019 mentioned this can only be done when the withdrawn/demonetised/exchangeable shenanigans have been implemented so it can be easily sorted out by the Robot.

I fairly sure any words such as Obsolete, discontinued, defunct and outmoded can be used depending on the context the word is used in.

• For example the US three cent piece can be classed as obsolete because even though its legal tender its one of those coin that are so old it is nearly impossible to acquire them.
• Discontinued can be used for previous series notes and denominations not made anymore such as Australian 1 and 2 dollar notes or the 2002 500 Euro banknote.

I understand what you say, but I can't see any use for it?
