-------------------------------
Banknotes of the euro, the currency of the Euro-zone, have been in circulation since the first series was issued in 2002. They are issued by the national central banks of the Eurosystem or the European Central Bank. In 1999 the euro was introduced virtually, and in 2002 notes and coins began to circulate. The euro rapidly took over from the former national currencies and slowly expanded around the European Union.
Denominations of the notes range from 5 to 500 and, unlike euro coins, the design is identical across the whole of the Euro-zone, although they are issued and printed in various member states. The euro banknotes are pure cotton fiber, which improves their durability as well as giving the banknotes a distinctive feel. They measure from 120 by 62 millimeters (4.7 in 2.4 in) to 160 by 82 millimeters (6.3 in 3.2 in) and have a variety of color schemes. The euro notes contain many complex security features such as watermarks, invisible ink, holograms and micro-printing that document their authenticity. While euro coins have a national side indicating the country of issue (although not necessarily of minting), euro notes lack this. Instead, this information is shown by the first character of each note's serial number.
According to European Central Bank estimates, in December 2012, there were approximately 15,687,189,000 banknotes in circulation around the Eurozone, worth approximately 912,593,020,200.
On 8 November 2012, the European Central Bank announced that the first series of notes would be replaced, starting with the 5 euro note on 2 May 2013. Europa will feature in the new series.
The European Central Bank intends to redesign the notes every seven or eight years. A new series, called "the Europa series", is being released from 2013; the first notes entered circulation on 2 May 2013. The new series include slight changes, notably the inclusion of the face of the mythological princess Europa in the watermark and in the hologram stripe. New production and anti-counterfeiting techniques are employed on the new notes, but the design shares the colors of the current series and the theme of bridges and arches. The new notes are nonetheless recognizable as a new series.
The new notes also reflect the expansion of the European Union, every member of the EU is depicted on it. The initial series do not include the recent members Cyprus and Malta (Cyprus was off the map to the east and Malta was too small to be depicted.
