Post by greyshade »

similar things here.. i see the number of old :note-5: in southern germany to be very low, but stable; ~1/10 i'd say.. i do see old :note-5: at atms from time to time, but only in such branches that have cash recycling atms..

in northern italy where i currently spend most time the number of old :note-5: is significantly higher and seems to be slowly growing compared to summer! don't know what banks hand out though since i only enter notes i get from circulation while in italy..

since it's not possible to see how many notes of which series have been entered in the EBT stats (due to problems with V and Z notes), I have made a statistics from
http://leopardi.miuku.net/tmp/denominat ... ountry.txt" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

:note-5: entered last week - Mon Dec 30 05:00:35 EET 2013 - Mon Jan 6 05:04:13 EET 2014

(Europa :note-5: ) / :note-5: = percent

all: 104878 / 123086 = 85,2%
Germany: 48572 / 51820 = 93,7%
Belgium: 24858 / 27372 = 90,8%
Austria: 10331 / 11601 = 89,1%
Netherlands: 4732 / 4545 = 104,1%, dang, 5/N/F005 went down from 408716 to 408042, never trust a statistics that includes fake entries :cry:
Finland: 1674 / 6514 = 25,7% (really??? 8O )
Italy: 1963 / 2006 = 97,9%
France: 5659 / 9061 = 62,5%
Spain: 635 / 1654 = 38,4% ( 8O )
Slovenia+Slovakia: 1522 / 2194 = 69,4%
Greece: 149 / 261 = 57,1%

I don't know how you calculated your numbers and where you made the error, but similar stats were already easily available without errors at http://miuku.net/tmp/first-europa-notes.txt" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; , showing 49.3505% for Netherlands.

It's true, that here (in Finland) is lots of more old fivers than the new ones :) My own five euro notes speak about that,because I have entered 34 :note-5: in the year 2014 and 31 of that are old fivers. And I think that it's good thing,because I have got many new combinations with old Duisenberg notes. Some of us are so lucky that they got great hits from Austria with those notes. It's funny to think that we use money which have been in Austria (and somewhere else too) many years ago and then those notes have been in banks many years and now we use it again. And I speak especially about notes which come from Geldservice Austria bunches. I would say that in Finland most of old fivers are Duisenberg notes now :D

Hi ;)

In :flag-be: the best way to find again old :note-5: is to come into a bank and to ask to the cash desk...with smiling, of course ! :D
(Just for information, today, I have gone to Brabant Wallon's province : only ONE ATM (CBC Wavre) gave to me a mix of "2002" & "2013" :note-5: :arrow: 50% / 50% ! 8O )

What happened in Slovakia? Less than 200 :note-5: in the last 7 days 8O

Ontopic: I received UNC fivers from the 2002 series from an ATM in :flag-nl: last Thursday. I hope DNB keeps the 2002 fivers in roulation for a long time, but I'm not happy with UNC 2002 fivers (very low hit chance).

I did it like this:

your file, from 30.12.2013 05:00:35, showed these numbers:

I added all the numbers for N/N, S/S, U/U, V/V, Z/Z (Europa) and other combinations (EU1)

and the next week, it showed:

this means that a lot of old notes were deleted within that week

Now it's Monday again (oops, Tuesday, the church bell is ringing :) )

last week:
06.01.2014 - 13.01.2014

Germany: 44268 / 46774 = 94,6%
Finland: 2137 / 7102 = 30,1%
Netherlands: 5006 / 9549 = 52,4%
this is in line with the recent numbers on your other page

In last weeks I have seen more new fivers, especially in bigger shops that need lot of change money (from banks.) So I think that new fivers are slowly going in circulation and taking the place of old fivers in Finland. But I'm sure that most of fivers will be old ones for many months after this message, at least in some parts of Finland.

In Portugal the new Europa have taken the lead a long time go, for every 20 :note-5: (for every :note-100: in :note-5: bundles/shops etc) there's like just 2-4 at best 6 2002 8O

Yeah, that's my impression as well. I actually get a little surprised when I find an old one these days. :lol:

I found an old :note-5: yesterday in a touristic town after almost two months: I think they're becoming quite rare now...

They're still pretty common in Spain.
