Yeah it is but I know a person was told at a shop till that her old 20euro note was a fake, when she showed me the note I knew straight away it was real and bank confirmed it to be real also to her
Yes
European Central Bank says that the old notes remain legal tender, with the same value as the new notes.
I don’t think it’s a stupid question though, UK and Sweden are both recent examples of places where new money was printed and the old money stopped being legal tender, requiring you to go to the bank to exchange it.
Yes
Haven’t seen any of the really old ones signed by Juncker in ages.
Yes. Ireland doesn’t do what England does where it updates it’s legal tender, and after a period of time has passed, it requests one to go to the Bank of England to change their old currency to new version.
In fact, I was in London back in 2018, and some of their legal tender had been updated and no shop would take my old £1 coin as legal tender, then I read that banks were only accepting old currency from their customers and currency exchanges were charging a fee to change to the newer version. Now things have probably changed now, however thank god Ireland doesn’t engage in that
There are two different kinds of 50 euro notes?..
The real answer is that no shite wage supermarket employee is gonna know nor give a fuck.
Nope, please send it to me for destruction
It’s still legal. They will slowly get taken out from circulation whenever they reach a bank to be replaced with the new ones, but still valid.
You can use either. That’s just a newer one on the bottom
The newer ones last longer because of the extra coatings. They’ll be redesigned again in 2024 but older ones will always be valid.
The commonly used ones only last 3 or 4 years so they are trying to fix that.
They aren’t issuing any more €500s because of its use in criminal activity but they last 20 odd years so will be around for a while. Some shops won’t accept them for whatever reasons they have.
No such thing as a silly question. Yes it is.
I believe the old ones still come out of the ATM machines.
Yeah and please don’t let tell you otherwise for the different signatures either.
No. Post it to me. And all the similar ones.
Do you know what I do with €50? I wipe my ass with €50.
Good god, and can that still be used as legal tender?
Yes, should trade for 3 Dublin City pints – best of luck
No it doesn’t have the queens head on it
Better be otherwise me confirmation money is useless
