    Default The euro banknotes that never were !

    The euro banknotes that never were !

    December 1995: The Madrid European Council adopts the name "euro" for the new european currency.

    February 1996: The Banknote Working Group, made up of cash experts from the EU national central banks, submits design briefs for the two themes ( abstract/modern and ages/styles of Europe; for both of them: through the ages).

    September 1996: The design competition closes; 44 proposals (27 "traditional" and 17 "modern") are submitted.
    A jury of internationally renowned experts in marketing, design (For France : Gerard Caron, founder of this Admirable Design site) and art history assese all the proposals and draws up two shortlists of the five best design series for each theme.

    October 1996: A public survey on the ten shortlisted design is carried out involving more than 2000 people from all EU member states exept Denmark.

    December 1996: The European Monetary Institute (EMI)selects entry T 382 as the winner. This design was created by Robert Kalina from the Oesterreichische Nationalbank (Austria) ! Aim: Banknotes should be:
    easy to recognise,
    secure against counterfeiting,
    visually attractive.
    They must be clearly identifiable as European and should embody a cultural and political message that is readily ceeptable to all European citizens.

    Design features:

    Each banknotes must depict a particular historical period ("age") and an architectural feature ("style") from that period to illustrate the "ages and styles of Europe". Ages are assigned to the denominatios as following:
    € 5: classical,
    € 10: Romanesque,
    € 20: Gothic,
    € 50: Renaissance,
    € 100: baroque and rococo,
    € 200: the age of iron and glass,
    € 500: modern 20th century architecture.

    Personally, I' think they should have selected Série N°9 (as Reinhold Gerstetter from Leonberg, Germany). Know that these designs date back to the mid 1990s. It would have been a better ES1 series than we one we currently have. They likely would still need to be replaced by the mid to late 2020s.

    There were some nice designs for a new USD coming from America. I was thinking on what we could do with this for a Second Series here in Europe



    € 5: Pericles (democracy)
    € 10: Charlemagne (father of Christian Europe),
    € 20: Leonardo Fibonacci of Pisa (mathematician - science)
    € 50: Johannes Gutenberg (first printed book - literacy),
    € 100: Hugo Grotius (international law),
    € 200: Either Robert Owen (industrialist and philanthropy) or Alfred Nobel (businessman, chemist and philanthropist)
    € 500: Aristide Briant and Gustav Stresemann (for their work on Franco-German reconciliation throughout the 1920s as a first step towards European unity)
    With their achievements printed on the obverse.

    Great designs indeed. They would have looked great.

    yes for sure but i suggest to add Jean Monnet and Carolus Magnus aka Karolus magnus rex Francorum too,Jean Monnet because is one of the founding fathers of the European Union and Karolus Magnus because he's the true founder before the economico-political entity
