Question About Old Euro Banknotes (2002 Series)
Question About Old Euro Banknotes (2002 Series)
Hi everyone,
I live in an Asian country and sometimes buy euros as an investment. Recently, while cleaning my room I found 1400 euros, but almost all the banknotes are from the 2002 series.
The breakdown is:
6 × €5
1 × €20
5 × €50
1 × €100
2 × €500
When I went to a currency exchange, they refused to convert them to the new series. I don’t mind holding onto them, but I also don’t want any issues later.
Do you think these first-series (2002) euro banknotes hold any value beyond their face value? Could they be worth more in the future, or should I just try to exchange them?
If they are better exchanged, how can I do it? My local currency exchanges refused, and I tried two or three of them. Any suggestions?
