Wrong 10€ note diffusion statistics in Lithuania
Posted: Mon Feb 09, 2015 3:10 pm
Hello, friends! Greetings from the youngest eurozone member Lithuania!
I will try to describe that I found analyzing tracking statistics. It seems Eurobilltracker site makes a mistake identifying 2nd series 10€ note with EB********** serial numbers as Slovak notes while it should be French as they are printed at Oberthur (France), not in Slovakia or for Slovakia. In Lithuania since the 1st of January, i.e. after adopting the euro, almost all "local" 10€ notes has either EB********** or PA********** serial numbers. There are no any difficulties with PA because system identifies them as they should be, namely the note was printed at Joh. Enschedé Security Printing (Netherlands - Haarlem). And another situation is with EB********** because due to mistaken identification (Slovakia instead France) Eurobilltracker shows wrong diffusion statistics in my country.
Let's see:
As EB********** notes are printed at Oberthur (France) and there are no any information about belonging to Slovakia, all those "Slovakia 46,71 %" I think should belong to France, am I right? Eurobilltracker writes that The following charts show the distribution of notes based on the first letter of the serial number. Yes, it is true for the 1st series notes, however totally wrong for the 2nd series, as we see on my example.
It is interesting that on the Note report page Eurobilltracker shows quite real information about EB********** notes:
And as we see there are no any mention about Slovakia contrary to that we can see in the New note field during entering the note:
Again Slovakia?
What do you think about that I described above, friends?
