Ireland ATM


Ireland issued ATM on last year by machine Propostal 2000, same with UK. The issue day is 21th Aug. 2008.

All the 4 montifs are about water way in Ireland. The barcode is different way from other countries.

For example
        A203: A is issue year of 2008, so B is 2009, C is 2010. 203 means 203th day of year while printed. You can see the strip have the name B198, that means user get the label on 18th July(198th day of 2009), 2009.
        The second row number 0250001 is divided two part, 0250 response the post office(here is Philately Service at Dublin), 001 is machine ID at the office.

Sounds like there are 4 machines on circle now, 9801 was installed on GPO Dublin at the issue day. Not sure where the 9806 is.

At 0250(philately service), they did not change the printing day on label, so there is show A203 always.

There are two kind of phosphor on the label. Early the phosphor appears on the round of label, later only 3 short vertical strip appears, see the legend.
