Plastic Money Coin Bags - Quantities

Hi Folks,

I don't have one to hand but here's an odd question. On an Irish Bank Plastic Money bag, what quantites are placed per value? I think a bag of 1 cents is 1 Euro, A Bag of 2 Cents is a Euro but the rest I don't have to hand. Anyone able to find me a link or know themselves?

Also, are notes done in a similar fashion?

Thanks!

Thank you very much! Is it a standard or can different banks do it differently?

Standard surely...

Bank of Ireland and AIB certainly use this method.

Standard. It's all done by weight.

heres the weights of the smaller coins, for all the people like myself who rather be doing more exciting things with their evening than counting out jars of spare change.

285g €10 in 20c
369g €10 in 10c

392g €5 in 5c

305g €2 in 2c
459g €1 in 1c

im not 100% sure how accurate my weighing scales is though, they seemed to vary each time... but only by 1g more or 1g less. so do a quick count before you bag them up just to be sure

Thanks savaagecabbage, you might want to check your 10c again, should be about 410g cheers.
