The Lewes Pound was reintroduced in 2008 as part of the Transition Town movement's push to keep spending within the local economy — a concept borrowed directly from the Totnes Pound, which had launched a year earlier. The 2009 second series added the £5 denomination, the largest in the scheme at that point. Lewes was chosen as a Transition Town pilot partly because of its existing reputation for local independence, most visibly expressed every November 5th in the town's famously defiant bonfire societies.
Acceptance was voluntary, and only participating traders honored the notes. The scheme's watermark security feature was added after early print runs attracted scrutiny over counterfeiting vulnerability.
