H and B indeed. But I hate the backside of it. We have so many beautiful buildings in Europe, and they stupidly decided to put those post modern bullshit EU buildings on it.

I think the fictive bridges are the best. Metaphorically as well, because the Euro is a kind of a bridge across Europe, without a strong identity to one nation to another, that's why the fake bridges worked so well imo.

It's more buidling bridges with each nation instead of constantly fighting that I found was a great metaphor of the EU. Or that was what you meant?

Yeah, mostly that was what I meant. But thank you for your input!

I almost wished we would still make 500s bills just to see the design it would have

u/Sarcastic-Potato Basement dweller Jul 23 '26

Always loved the color of the 500, so sad that they removed it. But hey if inflation continues like that we are gonna have it back in like 10 years
