Actually, the ECB might have borrowed the window from the Bank of Latvia - our 100 and 500 LVL banknotes had a similar feature since 2007/08

I have also entered SA, SB, SC, SD and WA notes found only in my workplace.
The same in Athens. I've entered a lot of new sequential notes from SA to SF and today new sequential RB/R010.
Apparently there's an ATM located on one of the suburban beach cities south of Athens, issuing these UNC N001 NZs, according to a friend who originally had 4 of those on him, all sequential. The problem is that he got them yesterday, plus that ATM is about 45km away (in dense traffic) so there's no point even trying to go there really..
"The European Central Bank (ECB) and the national central banks of the euro area – the Eurosystem – will unveil the new Europa series €50 banknote to the public on 5 July 2016. The new note is planned to be brought into circulation in spring 2017.
[…]
The national central banks of the Eurosystem have since April offered banknote equipment manufacturers the opportunity to carry out tests with new €50 banknotes inside national central bank buildings. From July, they will also offer new €50 banknotes on loan to interested banknote equipment manufacturers and other relevant third parties for testing at their own offices and at banknote equipment locations."
The security feature "portrait window" that reveals a portrait of Europe also seems to exist
(as it happened with the new note) at the upper right side of the new note.
