Have you already tried this one? www.eurobilltracker.com It's actually quite interesting. There should just be more Irish people.

It's explained on the page where you fill in info on the notes - just scroll down.

I'm member since May 9th, 2002 AND I LIKE IT!
I really like that there are a lot of new IRISH users, we need them.

So it would be great if you send the link (www.eurobilltracker.com) to some friends, or if you know about some other (big) forums, post it there.
That way we'll get more Irish users!

Pretty cool site. Is it not dodgy giving a website serial numbers from money?

No, definitely not.
On that site can you follow how your money travles around the world.
Once I had a note, which travelled 386 kilometres (241 miles) to me from a city in Germany (Braunschweig) to me in the Netherlands.

And a note I entered was in another Dutch city a few months later.

It's a very nice site, and after you registered yourself you can see a lot of statistics.
The site is getting bigger and greater everyday.

Well if I was counterfitting money a database containing various serial numbers would certain help.

Reason? The serial numbers would have a checksum in them and also contain trap numbers (eg, never use number 14, 220, 541). A database like this would skip these.

Squall

Well as long as we still get to use the notes we enter then they can counterfit away

BKtje

if they only use the short form the info would be useless wouldnt it? (i aint actually checked on the site yet, just someone on here said they used the shortened form of the serial)

Will have a look on the site now.

MF2HD

just registered, pretty cool, 5 notes entered - will be driving SO mad now to get at his notes (well thats my excuse now)

Genghis

Pretty cool site, my €5, well worn note was made in Ireland in 2002.

ToxicPaddy

yeah deadly site alright.. Id heard of the american one alright..

Wonder if its an EU officially backed site or what?

as some of the points the guys made about counterfeit money i pretty valid

Tox

tba

when they display the note serial numbers they actually block out most of the string with xxx's

SantaHoe

Cool site alright...
I read something about people writing the URL on notes... what's the story with that?
I mean is it still legal tender, or can someone refuse to accept it based on a defacement?
It's not exactly a wee squiggle like you sometimes see on notes.

It's not illegal to write on the notes, but if it ends up at a bank, the note will be put out of circulation.

I've seen a few posts on other message boards about this site, all the posters quoting addresses with different refering numbers at the end of the url... is there some kind of race to see who can bring the most visitors in?

The shortcodes have one letter followed by three numbers and again one letter, and a number at the end

example:

That's your opinion, I don't force you to join. Too bad you don't like it
But it's very funny to know where your money travles maybe to France or something. Or maybe it comes from Portugal or something, it's all possible.

shure isn't big brother tracking euros what with the rfid chips in them and whatnot ...

Ha!

The only reason i looked in here so as i could boast the 60 yoyos that i won on the horses today.

That's possible,
Some notes are printed in another country than the country where they're printed for.

Seems like a fun idea. How long, though, on average does it take to get a "hit"? Unless a lot of people in Ireland use it regularly it could take years. Sure we don't get too many foreign Euros here, do we

Well, the time to your first hit is dfferent for everybody, some people have to wait more than an year some people get a hit in a month or even less.
In Ireland are two pooling notes (pooling notes that are notes from a country that are broughed into circulation in another country)
In Ireland are right now some Italian €20 and Spanish €50
You can know were your notes come from, just take a look at the letter before the serialnumber (serial number is printed twice on the back of the note (one letter followed by eleven numbers)


Letter - Country

L - Finland
M - Portugal
N - Austria
P - Netherlands
(R) - Luxembourg *
S - Italy
T - Ireland
U - France
V - Spain
X - Germany
Y - Greece
Z - Belgium


* Luxembourg didn't print notes, they 'got' notes from Germany, France, Netherlands and Belgium.
It such a small country so they didn't print notes for themselves.

On all the notes is standing 2002.
But they can be printed in 2003 or 2004 of earlier.

Hello Ireland ... So I was thinking, let me visit that site who brings all those new Irish EBT users.

And yes, I am that weirdo at n° 1 on EuroBillTracker.com :cool:.

Yes, it's fun. Not only following your banknotes but certainly our international community on our forum. I've even visit some forum members in Finland.

Getting a hit can take a while but you know, every banknote you enter, can be a hit ... you never know. It's like a lottery but doesn't cost anything .
BTW, I've spent about 50 banknotes in Ireland. The must be somewhere ... they started in Dublin, Galway and Aran Islands. Try to find them! ww) .

Out of interest, how many users have been refered from this thread?

bhoeyb

Last days, there are about 50 new Irish users but I don't know if they are all referered by this topic.
But where are those Irish turbo-users?
