I take over this topic from Fjon. Thnx for his work!

*Rules*
If you find a shortcode (not serialnumber!) higher than the ones on this list, please post the following information in this thread:

• New (full) shortcode
• Value of note
• Countrycode with first 3! significant numbers of serial number (if you had no idea which one, take a look in the list stated below. A quotation mark means that the information is missing)
• Signature of the ECB president: WD, JCT, MD, CD

If you take part in this topic for the first time, please try to have the note already in your hand if you reported it here. If you only find records in your NIG-statistics (especially with old or not yet existing combinations) its a maximum likelihood that its only a typo.

Please check also the postings after the last update, if your entry is really the highest one!

And here again a short form of the actual records. Print it, hang it over your table or put in your wallet and if you see a high shortcode, check it immediatly with this list!!!

F005I6 - 10 F/N N690...
G020H5 50 G/P P105...
N004D5 - 10 N/Y Y077...

Sorry Osku - all of Fons' notes are higher than yours

Hmmm, I was always wondering - I do have a F009F1 10 € note, was that a type-o or is it real?

-M

Probably a typo, the highest F-code is somewhere in F006**

L030E4 - U268... French €20 - got it yesterday.

E002I6 U494
It's a Duisenberg's 20 euro bill.

M016G4 V174
It's a Trichet's 50 euro bill.

P011D3 X218
It's a Duisenberg's 50 euro bill.

Wow, at least for a brief time I will be on the list

P011F2- X010 - lmviterbo (this is my country flag, not the note's)
registered 2004-10-29 03:09:05 - Lisboa 1100-053

This would be my highest shortcode.

M017E3 V185 Trichet sign.

Btw, the rule of showing one letter and the first 3 digits of the serial doesn't seem wise to me, as notes appear like this on EBT: #Xxxxx8469xxx. Why not keeping that rule? 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 )

I prefer this topic to the old one because it is better with the note value !

F006E1- N150 - BaliBennie Trichet signature

T004G5- Z329 - BaliBennie

I think Fjons D002D4 is a typo

To list: F006H3, 10€, N380 (My first Trichet bill)

Fundamental wrote:I think Fjons D002D4 is a typo

Not necessarily, I think imleH had one too. Considering that the fjon's note was a 100€ note, it might have been a Trichet note and thus it might be likely that they changed the shortcode when printing Trichet notes.
