I always do it on the back, at the side.
May the Euro be with you.

Apart from big design differences, on the front is the serial number, and on the back the short number.

Edit: Somebody turned the question of what's the front into a poll of itself. In response to that I took another close look at some bills, and I'm considering the short number side the front after all.

But, since I can't edit the poll, let's just stick to what I said up here for the moment
May the Euro be with you.

Front side is definitely the short number side! Maybe we should make a poll about it :)

Edit: Oh, somebody did already

I don't do it anymore. I think I have marked ten to twenty bills. Than I read here on the forum that the banks take these bills out of circulation. So I stopped with marking.

I only mark the written and dirty bills, because their lifetime is already
very short.

Nowadays i mark the notes with a very small dot over the EU flag, if I bother marking them.

I mark my notes with a small dot in the right side upper corner on the "short-code side".

I'm just wondering if it effects on the lifetime of the notes. The dot is very small but visible.
