The twelve countries in Europe changed their currency from individual national currencies to the Euro on January 1 2002, and seven denominations of new bank notes were designed and printed. By the end of 2006, which is the earliest that this case might come to trial, the ECB is expected to have printed or caused to be printed about 30bn Euro banknotes, all of which DSSI believes infringe the patent.

DSSI? Patent? Huh? Please post more complete information about whatever it is you're talking about. I'm thoroughly lost.

So what exactly was this patent for? I can't seem to find it on the European Patent Office website, although I can find numerous others from this inventor.

Maybe this company developed the "eurion constellations" which are now widely used internationally as a security feature.
If so, does this mean the Bank of Canada paid a royalty fee to this company given that they are not named in the suit?
