Curency collecting is the field of Notaphily which refers specifically to the collecting of "bank notes" or currency as we call it. Sometimes collectors in this field are also called "rag pickers" particularly if they are collecting low grade currency, grading refering to the condition of preservation of the note. Collectors can be called Notaphiles which is not dissimilar to Bibliophiles (the book folks). The overall field which would include things like coins (numismatists), bank notes (Notaphiles), old stocks and bonds (Scripophilia) and stamps (Philately) is usually generally, and incorrectly, referred to as Numismatics. This comes from the Greek "Nomisma". And a bit more to help you interpret the Greek: "Scrip" designates ownership right. "Philo" designates "love of" or "to love". "Ateleia" designates "an exemption from payment". There are many more but that should suffice for the moment.
Generally speaking, no. Older notes are easier to forge and will have been withdrawn from general circulation. Old notes can normally be exchanged by bank branches.

New money or extra amount of bank notes are issued on reasons: GNP & GDP increased, Foreign reserve high; old bank notes are to be replaced (due to damage, destruction, lost), or artificially to produce new bank notes (it will cause devaluation)
Old notes can be exchanged for Euros at any Dutch bank. You could also ask for advice from your own bank.

Any bank should be able to take the old style £20 notes and replace them with the new ones. The Bank of England advises - All Bank of England notes from which legal tender status has been withdrawn remain payable at face value forever at the Bank of England in London. Any such notes may be presented for payment either in person during business hours, or sent to us by post. Unfortunately though, you may have to take or send them to the Bank Of England in Threadneedle Street, London, to be changed up as unless you are a customer of a general bank they are likely to refuse changing them up. They usually ask you to pay them into your account.
The Bank of England advises that the Sir Edward Elgar style Twenty Pound note was withdrawn on the 30th of June, 2010. After the 30th of June, most banks, building societies and Post Offices will accept the old notes for deposits and other transactions for a few months. Exchange of notes, other than for transactions and deposits is at the discretion of the institution concerned. There is no obligation on banks to accept the old notes. The Bank of England further advises that - Genuine Bank of England notes that have been withdrawn from circulation retain their face value for all time and can be exchanged at the Bank of England in London. There is no fee for this service. See the link below.
No, if you have a old £20 note you are able to take it to the Bank Of England and you change it for a current one.
