What it shows
- 507: territory-currency periods in source
- 41: EUR tender periods with start dates
- 308: distinct currency codes in history
A country-to-currency mapping needs a date and a tender flag. A single current currency column loses historical and overlapping use.
Method
Exact selection: currency EUR, tender true, start date present. Printed dates are source currency-use dates, not necessarily cash-introduction dates or legal accession dates. Territorial overlap is retained.
