Elon Musk says that while the European satellite contract SpaceX received is not on the launch manifest, it is the seventh [whoops] launch contract for the Falcon 9 (including three COTS). It will be their first geostationary launch.
Note: I was incorrect, it wasn't ESA per se, but Avanti Communications Group using ESA money.
It is actually the seventh launch contract.
