Arromanches-les-Bains sits directly above Gold Beach, and the 360° Cinema there has been running continuous documentary footage of the Normandy landings since 1962 — one of the longer-running D-Day memorial operations in France. The 75th anniversary in 2019 drew unusually large commemorations, with surviving veterans present in numbers that organizers acknowledged would likely mark the last major gathering of their generation.
Oberthur Fiduciaire produced the Euro Souvenir series under license from the European Central Bank, which permits zero-denomination collector notes provided they cannot be mistaken for legal tender. The 135 × 74 mm format is deliberately sub-standard to that end.
