Writing on Euro Bills

Post by Woordenboek.NU »

I am Peter, recently new at EuroBillTracker.

What I like to know is if anyone here ever received an Euro Bill where a internet URL is written on.

Please let me know!

Some do, some don't. Some do it without you noticing it, some use a simple dot of a pencil.

There is a dutch topic for it: http://forum.eurobilltracker.eu/viewtopic.php?t=2372

Maybe time for a lock or will this thread continue.

Hi Peter, and welcome. I haven't received any bills with URLs on them, although i've written the Eurobilltracker URL on a few (five or six) before I got any hits. Some people have received notes with the EBT URL written (or stamped) on them however.

See also this thread about the pros and cons of marking bills or this one to see what (other) kinds of things people stamp on bills.

@Venga: Somebody obviously just wanted to promote the site. Too bad the note wasn't entered. Now I guess it is. :wink:

I have stamped some notes with stamp "www.eurobilltracker.com", but i think that those notes are not circulating anymore... i'll never stamp more notes, because i think that those notes are distroyed because that.

I've received about 4 or 5 url'd notes, ALL of them were hits :)
I've also url'd some of my own notes of course only when they were very used already or when there was something else written on it. But none of them has ever become a hit (yet :)). Probably because I've spend most of these notes at a bank :D

The question is not if someone has ever received a note with the ebt url on it, but a url of another website. :?

I think the original question includes the EBT URL. :wink: My answer: Nope, I haven't. :)
Deliberately affecting the note circulation just because of EBT is like cheating in solitaire. :twisted:
