I’m having trouble because the allowance I receive is in old banknotes—two series behind, the old D notes—which some convenience stores and other places won’t accept. People also sometimes suspect they’re counterfeit, so paying takes longer.
This content is machine-translated.
I’d like to have them exchanged for regular banknotes, but why am I given old notes every time? If there’s a reason he uses old notes, would it be difficult to ask him to exchange them?
I’ve already brought this up with him, but I’d appreciate hearing your opinions too!

A bill from before 2007? That’s unusual. It would’ve been more interesting if it had featured Prince Shōtoku.
If you’re happy with the amount, just put up with it and exchange it.

If it’s an unused, crisp Shotoku Taishi bill, it’s apparently worth about 1.5 times its face value. Yukichi bills, on the other hand, are only worth more if they’re crisp and have repeating numbers; otherwise, they’re just worth face value.
If it’s crisp, you might want to hold on to it—the value could go up.
I’m keeping my crisp Shotoku Taishi bills as a collection and looking forward to seeing their value increase.
I wonder if that papa keeps his money stashed at home. It’s pretty rare and kind of interesting.
Once you’ve gotten closer, why not try saying, “They’re hard to spend as they are, so could you give me new bills instead?”
Since old bills might increase in value, you could say, “Why don’t you keep them, papa?” lol

I didn’t realize that could happen.
Maybe he had been keeping cash at home to avoid taxes, and figured using it as an allowance would be a convenient way to spend it since it’s difficult to use in shops?
If that’s the case, there may be some advantage to using the old bills, so it might be difficult to change things.
Still, if you really can’t put up with it, ending things may be unavoidable.
