Εκπαιδευτικά Άρθρα 18/12/2011 12:18It has been 10 years since euro starter kits were first handed out to people in Germany, ahead of the introduction of the single currency. Twenty deutschmarks could be traded in for packs containing 10.23 euros. The euro coins and notes were formally launched on 1 January 2002, but the countries involved issued kits beforehand, swapping the old currencies for packs of euro coins, so their citizens could get used to the new money.
