Euro Souvenir notes have been produced under an official licensing arrangement with the European Central Bank since 2015, permitting the zero-denomination format as a legal collectible — not legal tender, but printed to genuine banknote specification by authorized security printers. Oberthur Fiduciaire, one of France's principal security printing houses, produces these on proper banknote stock with UV-reactive paper and watermarking, which puts them well above the average tourist memento in material terms.
Cerza, situated near Lisieux in Calvados, is one of the larger zoological parks in Normandy. The 2021 issue is straightforward as souvenirs go — no known variants or printing anomalies for this specific release.
