I hardly carry cash (personal decision) and I doubt I would have noticed otherwise. I LOVE the big purple "5" on the back! It's very Euro-style and I adore it. When I was living in Italy, I used cash exclusively - even for rent - because checks weren't accepted from America (duh), I didn't carry traveler's checks, and using my debit card was very expensive. I really like the Euro bills because they're so easy to read - big numbers on the front and back in different colors. I love how distinguishing the different colors are, and how big the numbers were - easier to identify, even for a non-European-native. I think they did it this way to make it easier for all the people in Europe who had to learn to work with the new money back in (when? I don't know for sure) 2001. ;) Thanks for this, again :) What fun. Thank you for posting this! I hardly carry cash (personal decision) and I doubt I would have noticed otherwise.
