Cum ar putea arăta noile bancnote euro. BCE prezintă cele 10 variante finaliste și cere opinia cetățenilor

The European Central Bank is redesigning euro banknotes for the first time in over two decades, inviting public input on ten finalist designs. The new notes will feature advanced security elements and reflect European values. Two main themes are proposed: 'European Culture' showcasing historical figures and 'Rivers and Birds' highlighting biodiversity. The selection process began in 2021, with a final decision expected by 2026, but the new notes won't circulate for several years. Current notes, designed in 1996, will be replaced by a more representative design emphasizing cultural and natural heritage.
