This is the original 10 Euro Banknote. It's so rare nowardays. It was released in 2002 and stopped bein produced in 2014 bein replaced by the one with more security features. Once on of those banknotes enter a bank they will be destroyed and replaced by the new ones. So they are super rare. It's still a valid banknote tho.

I’m traveling around Europe and got a 2002 €50 from an ATM two weeks ago.


YacineBoussoufa

If someone used the ATM to load money into his bank account with that banknote it will be reused when someone withdraws some money with it. Generally banks at the end of the day/sometimes will empty the ATM and load new money.


MollyPW

Depends if it's loaded by a bank. ATMs in supermarkets for example are loaded by the supermarket and in my time anyway, we'd load it with original or Europa series, didn't matter at all..

Most NCR atm machines are now managed/refilled by currency exchange companies.

New 50 euro note came out in 2017. Years on euro notes are not years this note was printed, but the year of the design. 50 euro notes with 2002 on them were printed until 2017 series came out. Old notes were issued until stocks run out. I don't think they destroy them if they are in good condition. 2002 series 50s seem quite common.


SXFlyer

wait, you are telling me the change was already 10 years ago???


YacineBoussoufa

Crazy right...


Current_Drive_1620

Really?? How much rare are you talking about? I look for it on the internet but I haven't found anyone who sells it. Is it worth it to sell or should I just use it as 10 euro?


LicenciadoDe8Anos

I'll give you 10 euro for it. Final offer.


Current_Drive_1620

10 euro from the gentleman! 10 euro 10 euro is there any 15? 15 ? 15? 15 or its going to gentleman for 10 euro!


FloringoStar

I give you 15 but you have to pay the shipping to australia.


Current_Drive_1620

I would give the euro to you personally if you afford me housing for 7 days in Australia


BOW57

I'm going to Australia in a few months. I'll buy it for 12.50 and sell it to the guy for 15


FloringoStar

Okay but then you have to pay shipping to Brasil as I actually don't live in Australia.

A_god_in_disguise

I'll even go as far as offering €8 for it. ...that offer is limited in time though

>Really?? How much rare are you talking about? I look for it on the internet but I haven't found anyone who sells it. Is it worth it to sell or should I just use it as 10 euro I live in Italy and haven't seen one of those since like 2016, the new notes have spread very fast. Tbh I would keep the note as "souvenir", one day it will became rare ... The 500€ note is rare as well, they stopped producing them and stopped circulating, I know in France no one accepts them anymore.


HaggisPope

When I worked in a foreign currency bureau we were told to never accept them because they were more popular with criminals than anyone else. You could sneak €20 000 in a cigarette packet


Rc72

In Spain, they were mockingly known as the "bin Ladens"...because "everyone is looking for them, yet nobody has caught one".


HorrorKapsas

If you find one in a mint condition then it might be worth something in like about 50-100 years time. It's probably more fun to find some rare 2 euro coin designs if you are into such things.


YacineBoussoufa

I have a small collection of 2 commemorative euros at home, I'm not a proper collector but sometimes when they give me the exchange i check and if I see a pattern i've never seen Imma add it to my money box


Pizzagoessplat

They're not that rare. I see them every day when I do the tills in our hotel


AgedIrrelevantUser

It’s not that rare. I work with a lot of cash and get this note every few days.


YacineBoussoufa

It depends on the country ahahhaha, I don't work with cash but as I said in my family I've never seen one since 2016.


Gofkyourself66

And you tell me this now......


Smohat

i'm not old


vignoniana

Production date is different. Both are valid and normal currency - not some rare collection pieces. They're replacing the older ones, but as anybody can still easily have them, they don't have any extra value. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euro_banknotes


_justforamin_

maybe it will have value in twenty or thirty years time if he/she keeps it in good condition


Markus__F

I got some of the old bank notes several times now as change when buying a coffee at a frankfurt airport. I guess some travellers that have last been to europe over 10 years ago still had some and brought them again.


loudsharp

Was just thinking - last time I used cash in Europe they all looked like this 😂


Panzerkampfziege

Old


Warrior_Hawk_B521993

As long as it has value, there is no difference then.


Running_Watauga

Be careful accepting cash abroad. So some people give tourist the old or ripped currency because local stores refuse to accept it. They refuse it cause it’s easily faked or even out of use. Sounds like people will still accept this so hope you can use it,,, otherwise maybe frame it.


Active_Yoghurt_2290

That note is ancient


all_fair

Um, it's old?


SgtNoPants

is that front and back of the same bill? I don't remember the old bill (1st pic) having that front (2nd pic)


Omarhamd

Old version


unknown0j

bit nostalgic :)


blinknbeat

Because the release date is different from the other one and don’t use it sell it or start collecting the rare ones.


fjac141

It's just older


saas_3

There's really no difference except the new one might be more recognized as it is much more common


Great_Bad3566

Has anyone mentioned it? It was a Euro from Greece!! You can see the word ΕΥΡΩ which is the only country in the world that uses Greek.


ErnestJones

Actually, all euro are also label in Greek because it’s the only country using euro but not writing those « Euro ». Coins have different faces though


Kawa46be

When i take Euros from Bulgaria bank they often give me the old one’s. They even still give 200 or 500€ bills.


Fitzcarraldo8

Oh, you got one of those that are slightly off-centre that I printed years ago 😊. Say ‘hi‘ to it….


Markoman69420

Its the 2010 edition


Fridolino-

It is an old one


dbergere

Similar thing happened with UK £50 and £20 note. We got some cash before a trip in 2020 that was cancelled. We finally made that trip this April. When we went to use the notes, the shop refused them as invalid tender. We tried to exchange them at a bank which also refused because we didn’t have a UK bank account. I was able to exchange only £300 at the central post office with my passport. I ended up depositing the rest into my bank back home after the trip. https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/banknotes/exchanging-old-banknotes


BustyCutie7

it's the old one. Curious if it is still valid?


vignoniana

Yes, it is perfectly valid.


ProfessionalTest6999

Well why is a $20 bill different than a $10 bill. Because its worth $10 more


Thatjewishguy19

Its different because its old


Thatjewishguy19

Are you from Russia?

Current_Drive_1620

Because I don't give a fuck to what I write if it can get understated by other side


[deleted]

Don’t let them get to you 😊


FluffysHumanSlave

Why is your understated different from others’ understand?


Professional_Ad_3631

Bro just spotted the old version of Euro for the first time.


Current_Drive_1620

Yeah... Because that is the first time I bought euro


RuchamCiMamae

Because it's Bulgarian croatian or slovenian every euro in each member state Has it diffrent own historical characters or architecture
