All enthusiasts in the world of numismatics are looking more and more for special banknotes, coins and stamps, among the rarest and above all characterized by a greater value.

In today’s article, we want to talk to you about a specific 20 euro banknote that we use day after day and which, despite circulating quite freely, can end up being quite a fortune.

But it must also be said that sometimes we do not know that we have a rare thing in our hands and therefore we spend the banknote without having any problem.

So, as we said above, both banknotes and coins are objects sought after by the most passionate collectors, but what are the factors that determine their rarity?

Of course there are very specific factors such as the year of issue and their serial code that increase the value of a single banknote.

The most sought-after and therefore the most valued banknotes are, for obvious reasons, those in very early mintage, that is, those that are in optimal condition and have never been circulated and therefore show no signs of wear.

Today we show you that this special 20 euro banknote is worth much more. What you should know is that the presence of minting errors, as well as defects, can contribute to increasing the value of the banknote itself and can also determine the rarity of a particular specimen.

However, depending on the state of preservation in which the banknote is found, there are certain specimens of €20 that have a rather interesting value.

The banknote that has the greatest value is without a doubt the twenty euro banknote of Cyprus which is part of the series called G007 which has the signature Trichet which takes an important value equal to the figure of 290 euros.

But among the most sought-after banknotes we also find the 20 euro banknote from Slovenia, which is part of the G012 series and has a value of 250 euros.

Also a 20 euro banknote from Italy with series S001 which has the signature of Draghi, the value is 220 euro.

There is also this banknote that is worth 1000 euros, it is about the one that dates back to 2015 “with a short denomination”. This means that it has slightly smaller dimensions compared to a normal standard banknote.

However, “short cuts” are nothing more than very rare and hard-to-find specimens, which, if certified, can easily reach an indifferent value in the eyes of enthusiasts.
