I'm from Italy and I once held the 500 wich to me is the most interesting one. A part from that the coolest thing I can remember was when in the 2000 we were changing from Lire to Euros and everything was still advertised in Lire with the translation in euros at the side, and every shop showed both prices, a part from the economic crisis the euro caused for a basically poor value exchange, I think it's so cool to have this "comfortable" notes

When the new 5 Euro came out I was so in shock because the new paper was really heavy and it looked so tacky and cheep to me because of all the colours, it took me a while to appreciate the design and the beauty of it. I especially like the watermarks and I was so amazed when I discovered the fine print for the first time. I was never aware of the black light details! Now I know. Great video!

I recently found an old 10€ not in a birthday card, the difference side by side is really striking

As a EU-citizen, from the Netherlands to be precise, I never actually realized how cool all those different national sides were, until you mentioned it. So today, I grabbed all the coins I could find an sorted them, here are the most interesting things I noticed: - I had a lot of German coins, although I already knew this since it's such a big country and neighbours The Netherlands - I had surprisingly many Irish coins, I don't know why, it's not a very big country, not close the my country and neither me nor my parents have been there recently. - Other fun coins were: Portuguese, Slovenian, Slovakian and Lithuanian. I even had a €2 coin from Luxembourg - I also discovered commemorative coins, they're €2 coins that every country can release twice a year with a unique design. I had a French coin from 2013, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Elysée-treaty, A Dutch coin from 2009, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Euro and a German coin about Bayern, a German province. I think these are really interesting and maybe you could do a video on them.

As the younger generations intermix and appreciate their neighbors and enjoy the freedom of movement, tribal tensions abate and you realize you're all in it together.

In most European countries, a comma is used to separate the integral part of a number from the decimal part. This means, for example, that three hundred euros and ten cents is written as 300,10-with a comma as a decimal marker. On the other hand, in the US-as well as in other English-speaking countries including Australia, New Zealand, and the UK-the same amount is written as 300.10, using a decimal point.

2:37 Actually, where I live in Spijkenisse, in the Netherlands, there are replicas of the Euro bridges. Tom Scott made a video about them a few years ago: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hW15k9msqLK5qrA.html

They aren't replica's, they are a joke. Do you know what replica means?

Very well explained .. good work man

i just found your channel the last vid you made and i've been waiting for you to make another one! please keep up the great work!! edit: thanks for the heart :))

Euro Banknotes should also change from country to country but keeping the main aesthetic and security systems (For example, every country having their own Classical, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Modern Arches and Bridges) A 5€ could have the Arch of Constantine for Italy, The doorway of the Roman theater in Mérida for Spain, The Porta Nigra for Germany... Seriously that would be AWESOME!

This wouldn't work at all because not all countries had such historical periods. When most of Europe had Baroque and Renessance, for example, the Balcans were conquered by the Ottomans and had other eras/styles. Not to mention it gets too complicated as each country would have to type their own banknotes and it is important for them to not be easy to create counterfait. Thousands of fake 2 euro coins can't create much damage, but thousands of fake 50 euro banknotes can.

what a great video as always can't wait to the next unboxing video and i never did get a reply from the fan mail i sent you

I like how he doesn’t push you to subscribe like most youtubers, but he politely asks you to consider it.

Great style and animation. I’m a motion designer and was impressed.

You forgot the new IR and UV-C properties of the bills... though I’ll forgive you if you don’t have an IR camera or a UV-C lamp.

I love that each paper denomination is a different size. I am from the US where our paper money is boring and all the same size. My question: Does having different size notes for each denomination make it difficult an any ways, like for counting machines, or smaller notes getting lost in larger notes, or counting money as a teller, or wonky wallets, or ways I cannot imagine? I think the Zero-Euro is a brilliant idea! The treasury gets the cash (or someone does) and no currency is out of circulation. I'm a new subbie and I love your stuff. Best to you, Tom Hanks, and Ralph.

@Maxime_K-G

Not really, the differet sizes actually help machines identify the denomination. The size difference between a 5 and 200 Euro note might seem big but knowing that most people only cary notes of 50 or smaller in their wallet, it doesn't really cause a lot of trouble. It mostly just means that you will sometimes unexpectedly find a 5 Euro note in your wallet.

I love the euro more than any USA currency, but my heart aches when I think back about the Dutch guilder. What a gorgeous coin that was and also a 'dubbeltje' was incredibly cute.
