The 0 Euro souvenir note program, launched by EuroSouvenir in 2015 with Oberthur Fiduciaire as the primary printer, operates on a straightforward commercial premise: notes are legal in format but carry no monetary value, sold directly to tourists and collectors at a markup above face. Alto Minho — the northwestern Portuguese region bordering Galicia — joined a catalog that by 2021 numbered well into the thousands of regional and institutional issues across Europe.
Designer Leandro Vale is among the small pool of Portuguese creatives who have worked on multiple souvenir note commissions in this series.
