The European Article Number (EAN) is given on the front of the ear tag up to September 2000. This has been printed on the reverse side since October 2000. It is useful to recognize the edition of the animal and therefore his value. Tells you in which year it was done and how many of them were put on the world market, if it is a limited edition, it it is done only for a country etcetera. it is a very important identification number!!
