Di Faced Tenners are counterfeit £10 notes, printed on both sides. They were printed by Banksy for a public stunt and, being ever resourceful, the artist found another use for them later down the road. “Di Faced” is a play on the word, “defaced”, and refers to the fact that Banksy altered the British currency by replacing the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II with that of the late Princess Diana. The work is unquestionably a reference to Princess Diana’s estrangement from the Royal family, her critique of the British royal institution, and the hounding by the press that eventually ensued.

At least 100,000 Di Faced Tenners were printed in August 2004 – an equivalent of more than £1 million of fake currency was created. They were initially crafted as part of a public art stunt which involved dropping suitcases full of the fake notes into the crowd at the Notting Hill Carnival as well as the Reading Festival. Predictably, people scrambled to get their hands on the “free money,” and even after they realized the bills were counterfeit – attempted to use it at the festival and elsewhere anyway. The stunt was a piece of social commentary from Banksy about the lengths people are willing to go to for money, and it’s also possible he saw humor in getting his own “currency” into circulation. It’s often said that “money makes the world ’round,” and Banksy reminds us that a crowd’s instinctive reaction to “free money” is equal parts unsurprising and a bit disappointing.
