I only took a quick picture with the shortcode. I didn't take one with the serial number.

Great!

Updated on 03.01.2017

Very low activity for printers of "old" Euros, only 3 new plates, 2 of them are also shortcode records. But -thanks to the printer - we have the first 100-plate!!! 8 changes for the Europa-series, here we have only 2 new records:
ES1: J102G2 and R059F1
ES2: M003J6 and S015I6


Changes since last update are marked with red color.

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

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.
