Banknote Awards

Banknotes can now be linked to awards from industry conferences such as HSP EMEA, HSP Latin America, and HSP Asia. Awards are organised by body, category (e.g., Best New Banknote, Best New Commemorative Banknote), and year. A new By Awards page lets you browse award-winning banknotes with cascading filters and export. Award-winning banknotes are highlighted with a trophy icon in the banknote list and visual profile views, and awards are displayed on the banknote detail page.

Visual Profile Enhancements

Banknotes now include theme and colour data. The Visual Profile page displays these alongside orientation and images, with dedicated filters including Any/All matching. Colours are automatically assigned from banknote images using dominant colour analysis.
