€ notas





In the serial numbers of the banknotes found in the “Ages and Styles of Europe” series, also known as the “2002” series, the first letter represents the country that the banknote was issued by. In the second series (the “Europa” series) the first letter no longer represents the issuing country but instead the location at which the banknote was printed.

No €5 banknotes were printed for the “Ages and Styles of Europe” series which bear the signature of Mario Draghi.

The €500 banknote was discontinued and withdrawn from circulation with the release of the “Europa” series.
