Sorry, I am not sure about the definition of a "palindrome". I thought, that it is a symmetric number, like 123321 and NOT 12321!
But if it's just a number that can be read forward and backwards, then my number with 10 digits is not the longest possible...

Bit of a dangerous thread this is...
You could leave behind the letter at the beginning of the serial, for a start
Otherwise this nice thread would become very fake-sensitive. I suggest that we send the participants in this thread a pm whenever we come across a cool banknote.....I know, however, that this may destroy the thread...

...but, just to be on the safe side you know...

Yup. It's easily possible counting the missing numbers from the ones you've entered here..

A few days ago I had one with only 4 different numbers in it, one of them was the 0 at the beginning, the other ten numbers were made of 3 different numbers.
And a note with a lot of 1s in it
And a note with a lot of 7s in it.

I had a note with 6 times the 6 in it, 4 of them were in a row (like xxx6666)
The other two too!
And in the short code was also two times the 6

Some days ago I have got one with xxxx0a23456xxxx inside, it is a pity that a was not 1. The series could have been longer, but between 6 and 7 there was another digit.

A palindrome is a string of characters that can be read from front to back and from back to front and still read the same.
