Euro banknotes
Euro banknotes are legal tender throughout the euro area and they exist in seven different denominations: €5, €10, €20, €50, €100, €200 and €500. Their first series is gradually being replaced by the Europa series. The notes of both series feature architectural styles
Various security features have been incorporated into all euro banknotes to protect them against counterfeiting. They can be checked by using the simple FEEL, LOOK and TILT method.
