The 0 Euro souvenir note program, administered by EuroSouvenir and printed by Oberthur Fiduciaire, launched in France in 2015 and expanded rapidly across European tourist sites. Each note is printed to the same security specifications as genuine euro banknotes — same paper, same intaglio printing — which is precisely the point: they are legal curiosities with a face value of nothing, designed to be kept rather than spent.
Helen Keller has no obvious connection to Lisbon, which suggests this was issued by a specific cultural venue or centro operating under that name rather than a memorial site.
