There is very interesting discussion about D-shortcodes. I have got one D002 note. I was very suprised, because all others have been D001 notes. I looked it very carefully, therefore I`m sure it´s real. It was new 100 € note, shortcode D002E3, serial number L136 and I found it at the local bank.

I've updated the list.

@ er-felky - could you tell me the value of your Greek note? Was it a €10?

@ Elmo - you have quite a few notes for the list! Could you please tell me the value and first letter/ 3 numbers of the serial number? Also, if you remember if it is a Trichet or not.

If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

New Rule

Seeing as there are some notes that may or may not be typos, I am going to put it to a vote. I am not qualified enough to make an educated guess. Whenever I see a note which to me seems way too high I will put it to a vote.

The first two:

Batavorum: P020B5 (current record = P011)
ellinoora: D009D4 (current record = D002)

To me these seem way too high. What do you say?

My D002C4 L138 -note was Duisenberg. I'm pretty sure that Sport-Mass' note was a Duisenberg also.

I'm sure that ellinoora's D009 is a typo. I've entered 9005 pcs of twenty-notes and so far all of them are D001's.

I have plenty of D001 notes, but their serial begins with L, this one though is Pxxxx3792xxx. And i'm pretty sure that it's not a typo. Most of my notes are finnish and this one isn't, so it's my special and rather unique note. How can that be proven? Then my note would be definitely higher...

I have also D006C4 Image (serial begins also with P) and D004B4 Image (serial begins with X)..

I have also D006C4 (a five euro note and serial begins also with P) and D004B4 (a twenty euro note and serial begins with X)..
I had also one D009 but that is L -serial, so it's a typo I guess. Those D003B6, D003C2 and D006G4 I mentionel before are all P-serials. Their value is 5€. I guess they might be typos, but I don't know. Could I have mistyped D instead of G or something? (This speculation could also help me to fix those serials. :roll: )

Aargh...I'm very new at €billtracking and D is the only shortcode I haven't gotten yet. :( ..do I need to go back to Finland to get one? (When I was there it was still markka).

To think of all the euros I let pass through my hands without tracking them (especially since I saw a lot at work!) :x ...can we rewind the clock back to 1/1/2002 now that I know about this site? :P

To quote a great British sitcom, "carry on everyone, you're all doing very well..." :wink:

Perhaps I should have said, "EURO doing very well..."

I'll shut up now until I have another high code to report :wink:

Now for these notes everybody is able to know digit positions 1-3 and 5-8, remaining only 3 hidden digits. Mind that some of the hidden can even be inferred from the note's value and/or shortcode.

(sorry, imleH, got here first :roll: )

If we don't put the url in the post, nothing could happen, and when there is an url, then we still have 4 numbers you don't know anything about.
If someone tries to enter the same serial he would be considered as a faker very fast because I think it's not easy to enter 100 (not 1000) notes without being suspicious to other users.

Those Ds should have been Fs in these cases I guess.
Because the D and the F are very close to each other on the keyboard...
And there are P-notes printed by F circulating in Finlans, as you'll know.

P011 - X01 ?
Are you sure about it?
It sounds a bit strange to me.

(btw: I didn't receive any P011 note yet)
