EUR/USD Long Term Historical Chart

Does anyone know where to access a long term historical chart for the Euro that dates back to at least 1900? I had found one years ago that I speculate went back as far as it's inception. I could see the exchange rate back in the 14, 15, 1600's. It was all just a straight line throughout the years with a crazy spike and then resuming back to normal. Unfortunately I didn't bookmark the site.

that's interesting that you found a euro chart dating all the way back to the 1400s. what was this euro against?
 
That is interesting b/c Euro come out as accounting currency only in 1999 and a physical currency came out in 2002. Hmmm....very interesting.
 
For the years before the Euro, the theoretical value for the Euro was calculated on the DM/USD rate.
So you can find charts for EURO/USD for the period before the introduction of the Euro.

1400 means 1.4000 for those who didn't understand it. It was not the year 1400.
